Discovery and Science Channel have commissioned major new series Uncharted (working title) from Karga Seven Pictures, fronted by explorer Justin Fornal.

Maps have been used for centuries to find ancient relics, mythical cities and buried treasure. In this new Karga Seven series for Discovery and Science Channel, urban explorer Justin Fornal will use detailed historical maps along with the latest in high tech imaging to investigate mysteries that have remained elusive to others.

Uncharted will premiere in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Though no one map holds the whole picture of these mysteries, Justin will cross-reference the information held within them, spurring the pair to launch new, in-depth investigations. Expert researchers and high-tech tools will help locate the mythical outposts detailed in these maps and unravel the mysteries behind their disappearances. Among the stories that Justin will attempt to solve are the legend of a treasure ship buried in the middle of a California desert, and the question of whether the Knights Templar secretly brought their treasure to the New World a century before Columbus’s voyage to America.

Justin Fornal is an international explorer and cultural detective. In June of 2018 he was listed as the #3 most adventurous person in the world right now’ by Men’s Journal. Justin specializes in investigating indigenous traditions and historical mysteries around the world. In 2016 he tracked down the lost skull of African American slave rebellion leader Nat Turner and repatriated it to the Turner descendants.
