Ur was one of the great cities of ancient Mesopotamia, but some of its most remarkable remains come from beneath the ground. This episode follows the city through its early development and into the famous Royal Cemetery, where archaeologists uncovered extraordinary goldwork, weapons, musical instruments and burials involving dozens of people. We look at what these graves can actually tell us about kingship, religion, wealth and death in ancient Sumer, and why the so-called Royal Death Pits remain some of the strangest discoveries ever made in Mesopotamia.
