Mystery Of The Desert Kites on SBS and SBS on Demand – In the North of Saudi Arabia and South of Jordan lie thousands of mysterious geoglyphs whose shape, when seen from the air, remind us of giant kites.
The oldest of these immense stone structures was built around 7000 BC, predating the Egyptian pyramids and the spectacular Stonehenge monument by over 4,000 years.
Who designed these structures and why were they built? Using cutting-edge technologies, an international team of archaeologists led by French researcher Rémy Crassard and Franco-Jordanian research fellow Wael Abu-Azizeh are determined to solve this mystery and shed a new light on the little-known Neolithic period.
