August 10, 20205 yr There is an interesting article at thehistoryblog.com regarding a Viking era (9-10th century) helmet which was found in North Yorkshire in the 1950s. I would have posted this in historical blades but a helmet is designed to protect from blades and other things. There may be something said for having a topic on armor, particularly since I know a number of people on IFI have made armor either as an exercise of for use in the SCA or LARP. "By hammer and hand all arts do stand." Mod comment: Armor/armour discussions live in the "Cold Worked Iron and Steel" section. Edited August 10, 20205 yr by Mod34 Moved to proper section
