Trivia
- Today there is only one known example of a Viking helmet in existence. This Viking helmet was made of iron and was in the shape of a rounded or peaked cap made from four plates after the spangenhelm pattern. The helm was excavated from Gjermundbu, Norway, and dated to the 10th century.[1] From runestones and other illustrations, it is understood the Vikings wore simple helmets, often peaked caps with a simple nose-guard. It is unlikely that any Viking helmets had horns or wings mounted on them, but illustrations from the 19th Century popularized this representation.
