When are Horned Helmets REALLY From? (not the Vikings)
You know those horned helmets? Yes you do! The bronze ones! They were excavated in the 1940s and we knew they weren't Viking. Yes, those ones! The Veksø (or Vikso) ones. Well anyway, the fact Vikings didn't wear them isn't news, it's clickbait to trick you. You know, media stuff. Anyway, we knew that ages ago. But there is cool archaeology stuff about them that is news! Yay! Join me in having a little dig into why these bronze horned helmets are in the news and what important work has really been done on them! The article: https://www.degruyter.com/document/do...
