NTSC WIDESCREEN 105 minutes
Structured in three parts of 35
minutes each, the first segment is an introduction to the
temples, with placement of where and when.
The second segment
presents a deeper architectural, engineering and anthropological
focus.
The third segment centers on new research such as
archaeo-acoustics and the possible role of sound as a motivator
for the invention of the temples. Links with other early
Mediterranean societies are suggested with a curious chain of
“coincidence”, old documents, and DNA studies as they relate to
the Temple Culture. More about the content at

Meet The World's First Architects
Look inside ancient chambers; examine clues from a time before
history began;
Meet a descendant of the original sacred temple bulls;
Explore the Fat Lady sculptures of a pre-Biblical fertility cult;
See the workings of the world's oldest solar calendar in stone;
Hear resonance generated in subterranean chambers that has the
scientific community rethinking the invention of monumental
architecture.
New light on the
ancient world comes from temples and artifacts left by amazing
prehistoric builders more than a thousand years ahead of Stonehenge
and the pyramids. For the first time anywhere, an in-depth look at a
mysteriously advanced people who created gigantic stone monuments on
the Mediterranean islands of Malta and Gozo. It
took years to assemble the data. It took experts in a wide range of
studies to bring their specialties and observations together before
anyone would understand the implications.
What have we been missing?
A grand illustration of humankind at the turning point. New
research implies that a desire to harness sound effects may be at
the root of the invention of sacred architecture. An examination of
overlooked evidence suggests links with the ancient Levant and an
influence on later cultures like the Minoans and the Phoenicians,
perhaps even megalithic Great Britain. Bridging from hard science to
theory, this pioneering film delivers compelling incentive to take
another look at what we thought we knew about the past. Angles
of interest range from anthropology and architecture, to art history
and ancient religions, to physics and bio-behavioral science.
Filmed on location on Gozo and Malta.
Principle presenters include archaeologist Dr. David H. Trump (Cambridge) who excavated at Skorba Temple in Malta,
and FAIA architect, Prof.
Richard England (University of Malta).
