Not all that glitters is gold… Sometimes it’s silver! 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!
