In1979, just before the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, a struggling
archaeologist made a spectacular find. He found huge piles of gold in
the graves of nomads in Northern Afghanistan.
The burials were over four thousand years old, dating from the second
and third millennia B.C.
It would be a watershed moment for the archaeologist, Viktor
Sarianidi, whose tireless efforts for three decades have helped us to
know about a fifth river civilization of the Ancient world.
