Arrowheads in Antarctica

  • Summary

  • In the 1970s, when arrowheads were discovered in Antarctica, it sparked an archaeological mystery. Were they the first sign of an untapped history of the frozen continent, or part of a conspiracy to rewrite Antarctic history.

    Thomas Bywater talks to the pioneers of Antarctic archaeology about their strangest finds, a dictator's attempt to change history, and a woman whose skull was found on Livingston Island.
