Features Rudy Larios, archeological conservationist and Alfonso Morales, archaeologist.
All shows in this series were filmed and produced entirely by Lawrenceville School students as part of the interdisciplinary course 'History Through a Lens' under the guidance of history master Michael Hanewald and filmmaker and art master Gil Domb.
