Ključna beseda Alexander The Great

Predrzna pustolovka in arheologinja Lara Croft (Angelina Jolie) je prišla do morda največjega odkritja v zgodovini te vede: našla je skrivnostno kroglo, ki naj bi kot ključ vodila do mitološke Pandorine skrinjice. Krogla na žalost pade v roke zlobnemu znanstveniku Jonathanu Reissu (Ciarán Hinds), ki v laboratoriju izdeluje smrtonosne viruse in si obeta, da bo skrinjico bogato prodal najboljšemu ponudniku kot biološko orožje. Laro najame britanska obveščevalna služba, da bi kroglo izmaknila Reissu, za to nalogo pa bo potrebovala pomoč nekdanjega ljubimca, pripadnika britanskih posebnih enot Terryja Sheridana (Gerard Butler). Dvojica se odpravi na neverjetno pustolovščino po vsem svetu, da bi prišla do svojega cilja nekje v Afriki: prvobitnega kraja, ki mu pravijo Zibelka življenja.

The story of Indian warrior Porus and his life especially the Battle of the Hydaspes with the Great Alexander.

Archaeologist and historian Richard Miles traces the development of Western civilization, from the first cities in Mesopotamia to the fall of the Roman Empire. In this six-part series, Miles travels through the Middle East, Egypt, Pakistan and the Mediterranean to discover how the challenges of society -- religion and politics, art and culture, war and diplomacy, technology and trade -- were dealt with and fought over in order to maintain a functioning civilization. Stories are told of disappeared, ruined and modern cities, from ancient Iraq to modern Damascus, to reveal how successes and failures of the ancients shaped the world today.
