: The Tribal Eye
Seven award-winning films in which David Attenborough relates the masterpieces of tribal art to the people and places that produced them.2: Crooked Beak of Heaven
The Indians of the north-west coast of America were once savage head-hunters with gigantic war canoes which carried them through the freezing waters of the Northern Pacific in search of their gruesome trophies.
Their chiefs were obsessed with rank and privilege, and they proclaimed their status with lofty totem poles, the largest wooden sculptures in the world. In spectacular ceremonies called pot-latches they indulged in competitive displays of wealth, often destroying valuable possessions in their attempt to outdo a rival.
Potlatching was outlawed for many years but survived, and each summer many thousands of dollars in gifts change hands as the chiefs compete once again for the highest standing among their people.
Continuously fascinating. (OBSERVER) Attenborough's programmes are a luscious feast for the eye ... a superior series. (SUNDAY TIMES)

David Gould , the expert who discovered the Palmer imitations, and who stayed firmly in the background during the journalistic revelations, now makes his first appearance to show Arena the process of identifying and analysing suspected pictures.
We follow some of the scientific detective work on paintings, and look to the future discovery of more ' masterpieces'.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
