1963, a man in Turkey noticed his chickens were disappearing through a small crack in his basement.

1963年，土耳其一位男子發現家裡的雞莫名其妙地消失，原來是從地下室一個小裂縫鑽走了。

He knocked down the wall to find them, but instead he found a dark tunnel.

他敲開牆壁想找雞，結果卻發現一條漆黑的隧道。

Eighteen stories underground, he had stumbled upon a massive hidden city that had been sleeping right under his feet for centuries.

在地下十八層樓深的地方，他意外發現了一個沉睡了數百年的巨大地下城市，就在他的腳下。

This is Derinkuyu, a subterranean marvel carved into solid volcanic rock.

這就是Derinkuyu，一個雕刻在堅硬火山岩裡的地下奇蹟。

At 85 meters deep, it could house 20,000 people for months without them ever seeing the sun.

這裡深達85公尺，能夠容納兩萬人居住數月，而且他們完全不用見到陽光。

Ventilation shafts, water wells, churches, stables, and kitchens designed to disperse smoke without alerting anyone outside.

這裡有通風井、水井、教堂、馬廄和廚房，設計巧妙，能讓煙霧消散，卻不會引起外面的人注意。

To stay safe, they used massive circular stone doors weighing half a ton that could only be opened from the inside.

為了安全起見，他們使用了重達半噸的巨大圓形石門，只能從裡面打開。

When invaders arrived, entire villages simply vanish into the earth.

當入侵者抵達時，整個村莊就這樣消失在地底。

They sealed the doors and waited in total silence.

他們鎖上大門，在完全的寂靜中等待。

Raiders would walk through empty streets, find nothing and leave, never knowing a whole civilization was breathing right beneath their boots.

Archaeologists discovered it was linked by a five kilometer tunnel to another city called Kaimakli.

考古學家發現它透過一條五公里長的隧道與另一個名為 Kaimakli 的城市相連。

In fact, over 200 of these underground cities have been found in the region.

事實上，這個地區已經發現了超過 200 個這樣的地下城市。

A massive interconnected world that was forgotten by history until one man's chickens went missing.

一個龐大相互連結的世界，直到有一天某人的雞不見了，才被歷史遺忘。

If you lived back then, would you have the courage to disappear underground to stay alive?

如果你生活在那個時代，會有勇氣躲到地下求生嗎？
