Ancient Apocalypse is a 2022 documentary series about the pseudoarchaeological theories of British writer Graham Hancock. Synopsis In the series, Hancock argues that an advanced ice age civilization was destroyed in a cataclysm, but that its survivors introduced agriculture, monumental architecture and astronomy to hunter-gatherers around the world.
