Short film publisisng the incredible Vinča - Prehistoric Metropolis Exhibition in Belgrade..

Ephemera, made in 2004 by Sean Caveille, is a short film about the popularity of archaeology/history programmes on TV. At the time, new quick-paced series like Extreme Archaeology (Channel 4) and Hidden Treasure (BBC 2) were desperately trying to capture new viewers by turning archaeology into that most dreaded of adjectives - 'sexy'. Four years later and the BBC are trying to do the same thing again with Bonekickers... Ephemera has a distinctive visual style which is achieved through placing the importance back upon the archaeology itself: once the interviews were filmed and edited, they were video-projected onto prehistoric West Kennet long barrow and re-filmed.

The Megalithic Temples of Malta are a series of prehistoric monuments in the Maltese archipelago. Archaeologists believe that these megalithic complexes are the result of local innovations in a process of cultural evolution.[1][2] This led to the building of several temples of the Ġgantija phase (3600-3000 BC) and culminated in the large Tarxien temple complex, which remained in use until 2500 BC. After this date, the temple building culture disappeared.[3][4] The Ġgantija temples were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980.[5] In 1992, the UNESCO Committee further extended the existing listing to include five other megalithic temple sites. These are Ħaġar Qim, L-Imnajdra,[6] Ta' Ħaġrat, Ta' Skorba and Tarxien.[7] Heritage Malta today protects the sites, while ownership of the surrounding lands varies site-by-site. They are the oldest free-standing structures on Earth www.studymalta.eu
