News: Television Series Spotlights Explorers in Search of Vanishing Populations

On Thursday, October 30, 2008 CBC-TV premiers a four-part series, The Adventurers, which follows modern-day explorers as they search for vanishing populations and cultures. Zegrahm lecturer and archaeologist, Edmundo Edwards, is the focus of the November 13th episode. Armed with the knowledge that the French Polynesian islands were once the home of thriving native populations—until European diseases tragically wiped them out—Edmundo set out into the interior jungles of Tahiti, Raivavae, and the Marquesas Islands where he discovered a vine-covered realm of stone cities and structures never before seen by the outside world. Program repeats on Thursday, November 20 at 10 p.m. on CBC Newsworld.
