Treasures of Istanbul
In this fascinating ancient hub of the Ottoman and Byzantine empires, Bettany is allowed access to digs at Besiktas Metro Station, where a multi-layered Iron Age burial site has been discovered. A coin of Emperor Justinian (the husband of Bettany’s all-time history heroine Theodora) emerges from the Earth. This dig will finally reveal the identity of Istanbul's original inhabitants.
