Join a classroom expedition to discover lost cities, buried riches, world antiquities, sunken fortunes, valuable art, and precious collectibles. Using fascinating film footage and first-hand accounts, you’ll dive into history and culture to uncover treasures from around the globe.

You’ll explore the long-lost gold and jewel mines, vintage heirlooms, the spoils of war, religious icons, forgotten manuscripts, Jurassic fossils, and hidden Hollywood mysteries through the thrill seeking, true history DVD series narrated by Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) “The Hunt for Amazing Treasures”.

Each week, you’ll uncover the hidden item of the week, watch how it was recovered, record your findings in Adventurer’s Logbook, chart it on a map, then embark on your own classroom quest, treasure hunting to seek out a prize chest of delights!

This class captures the imagination and engages students across multiple subjects combining history, cultural studies, geography and…curiosity!

Our discoveries will include the following in addition to a deeper dive into related topics:

Sunken Riches

The Maravillas and Atocha Galleon Ships

The 1715 Fleet
