Why the Picts Terrified Rome—Then Vanished Without a Trace

Who were the Picts? For over 300 years, they resisted the Roman Empire, defended northern Britain, and created one of the most mysterious civilizations in European history.

In this documentary, we explore the true history of the Picts, separating Roman propaganda from archaeological evidence.
