BG Research Picked up by Award-Winning Podcast

James and James are delighted to have been spotted by one of the world's most loved and trusted history broadcasts. The Rest is History , with Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook has delighted audiences since 2020, and in 2025 Byrga Geniht will make a debut in a special bonus episode highlighting our discoveries in early medieval art history. We will tell the story of how the mathematics of rhombic dodecahedral garnet stones inspired early masterpieces like the Sutton Hoo and Staffordshire Hoard treasures, and ultimately went on to influence British art down to design and decoration all around us --- especially concentrated in historic country houses such as Soulton Hall in Shropshire and Braxted Park in Essex. Elements of all these chapters of the story will be on show in our exhibition at the Minories, Colchester in August. The Rest is History episode will likely broadcast in September, so early birds will grab a train to Colchester to see the objects for themselves in August ahead of the exciting podcast appearance.
