helmet

While archaeologists have found Scandinavian horned helmets, they preceded Vikings by 2,000 years, and were likely used in rituals, not battle.

Instead, high-status Vikings might have worn iron helmets with brow bridges, while others donned leather caps.

His collection also included a grand four-tiered golden helmet, though some historians suspect it wasn’t actually designed for wearing.

I don't know what they exactly mean with that because for me it's quite a short straw that I have connected in my helmet.
