In today’s episode, Matilda is joined by Egyptologist and Jewelery Historian Sigrid van Roode, to talk all about that most magical of materials: silver. Together, they discuss all the questions about silver that you didn’t even know you had: Why did people used to regularly cut up silver bracelets? What did political issues in central Asia have to do with the Viking raids in Northwest Europe? How can you trust what you see in a photograph? And why should we pay attention to the hairstyle depicted on silver coins? Tune in to find out!

Same but with a twist - Ep 14

In this fourteenth episode of Tea-Break Time Travel, Matilda talks all about torcs with expert archaeologist Dr Tess Machling. You might be familiar with these twisted pieces of jewellery, but do you know what they were used for? Who made them? How they developed over time? If the answer is “no”, then don’t worry you’re not alone! But listen in to this episode to hear all about the current theories surrounding these beautifully shiny objects, as well as the pros and cons of working as an independent researcher, and why some artefacts are surprisingly tasty.
