Siberia, Alaska, and Malta are three examples of mass 
						slaughter sites littered with carcasses and skeletons 
						either petrified in rock, invaded in limestone, entombed 
						in bitumen, buried in ice or mummified in peat bogs.
						
						 
						
						
						Their instantaneous end was horrific. 
						 
						
						What 
						agent of destruction rendered them extinct...?
						
						Archaeologist 
						
						Peter Mungo Jupp unravels the evidence 
						embraced in petroglyphs, art, writings, verbal 
						traditions - even dance motifs - that 
						
						cosmic 
						thunderbolts may have been the force behind some of the 
						world's mass extinction events.
