        There is not sposed to be evidence of horned helmets in Vikings, but this suggests that Germanic/Nordic invaders did have such a tradition?

        Ever read the novel "Dragon under the Hill" by Gordon Honeycombe? Set on Lindisfarne, but I think one of the artefacts uncovered was this.

        Modern ghost story of revenge based on Viking sack of Lindisfarne. Read it decades ago. Prob. long out of print.

        Is there any meaning in the 3 large orbs? (One large orb beneath figure and 2 medium orbs w/ spears pointing at them.)
