Lost Relic Hunters

Following on from the hugely successful Lost Relics of the Knights Templar, the new series once again follows the work of one of the world’s most prolific collectors of antiquities, Hamilton White, and his long-time friend and business partner, Carl Cookson. The intrepid duo are back on the trail of some truly astonishing relics and historical pieces, which, if authenticated, will potentially change our understanding of some of the most iconic periods of British and European history. Now aided in their adventures by cultural and art historian Dr Janina Ramirez, Lost Relic Hunters sees Carl and Hamilton journey to Venice, Istanbul, Jerusalem and Western Europe, in an attempt to authenticate rare and precious antiquities from Hamilton’s collection.
