Lost Biblical Treasures

The legendary Holy Grail, believed to be a relic of the Last Supper of Christ, has captured the world's imagination for centuries. This simple peasant's chalice sent the Knights of the Crusades across Europe, Britain and the Holy Land in hope of harnessing its mysterious powers.

The quest for this ancient artifact continues to this day. Yet, after 2,000 years, no one has found it, or have they? Why, after hundreds of years of silence about the Grail, did the Nazis suddenly decide to launch a search for this relic? Does a British psychologist actually have the Holy Grail in his possession?

Imagine finding a 2,000-year-old treasure map that appears to lead to a fortune worth untold millions... but no one can decipher the directions. That's the dilemma facing today's scientists as they pour over the contents of the Copper Scroll found near the Dead Sea. Does it point the way to Jerusalem's lost temple treasures? What vast riches are buried in King David's tomb? Do the treasures still exist... or have others already made off with these ancient biblical artifacts?

Archaeologists tell us why they are still searching for the treasures. Would the discovery of these fabulous riches solidify the Jews' claim to the Holy Land? Or lead to an all out Holy war? Are the lost Bible treasures a curse or a triumph?
