Inhaltsangabe

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. European Bronze Age and Iron Age helmets with horns are known from a few depictions, and even fewer actual finds. Such helmets mounted with animal horns or replicas of them were probably used for religious ceremonial or ritual purposes.A pair of bronze horned helmets from the later Bronze Age (dating to ca. 900- 1100 BC) were found near Viksø, Denmark in 1942. Another early find, dating to ca. 800 BC, are two figurines of men with horned helmets, found in Zealand, Denmark.
