...and besides.... here's proof that I have mine.... where's yours? (It helps to keep my viking bad language in tow)
BUT - - BUT - - BUT - - I was watching a TV show from the good old ever reliable, truthful BBC just a little while back,
they said in real life, the Vikings (pronounced - Wiking) didn't have horns of any sort on their helmets.
The Myth
Viking warriors, who raided and traded, settled and expanded through the middle ages, wore helmets with horns or wings on them.
This iconic symbol is repeated today by fans of the Minnesota Vikings football team, artwork, illustrations, advertising and costumes.
PLEASE don't tell me we can't even trust the good old BBC any more ???????
The Truth
There is no evidence, archaeological or otherwise, that Viking warriors wore any type of horns or wings on their helmets.
What we do have is one single piece of evidence, the ninth century Oseberg tapestry, suggesting a rare ceremonial use,
(the relevant figure on the tapestry may even be that of a god, rather than representative of real Vikings) and plenty of evidence
for plain conical/domed helmets made mainly of leather.
DAMN ! I'm bored !
