My Two Cents:
- Reasons to Watch Scientific American Frontiers: The Secret Canyon:
- The Freemont indians had a fascinating culture and this educational documentary gives us a glimpse into some of their more extreme habits – like building their homes on the edges of cliffs! .
- The archaeology part was interesting, but just as fascinating was the part about how this land remained so untouched for such a long period of time.
- If you are an archaeology or history buff then you will probably really enjoy this show.
- Reasons to Stay Away from Scientific American Frontiers: The Secret Canyon:
- While I found this episode to be extremely interesting, I realize that it may not be everyones’ cup of tea. If archaeology and indian history doesn’t interest you then you may want to skip this one.
