Vikings covers Viking homes, longboats, feasts and fearsome gods, while The Maya introduces the extraordinary stone temples and civilisation of Central America.

Ancient Greeks introduces the philosophers, mathematicians and everyday customs of Ancient Greece, and Egyptians tackles the mysteries of pyramid-building and mummification. Rounding out the set, Iron Age and Stone Age trace early farming, hill forts and the very beginnings of human settlement.
