"The Mystery of Bronze Age Horned Helmets". > [Amazon](https://youtu.be/8IUWvk4MuNw) ## Description > Figures wearing horned helmets are depicted in Scandinavian rock art, on stelae in the Iberian Peninsula, and menhirs on Corsica. And horned helmets feature on statuettes from Zealand, Sardinia, and Cyprus, on wall decorations of the Sea People on reliefs in Egypt before the Bronze Age collapse, and on the Mycenaean Warrior Vase. Clearly, horned helmets were widely distributed during this period of the Bronze Age. But why? What do they mean? And are they connected in some way? In this video we’re taking an epic voyage through the European Bronze Age in the 12th century BC from Scandinavia to the Iberian Peninsula and across the Mediterranean to the east in search of the horned helmets of traders, warriors, kings, and gods. ## Timestamps [00:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=0s) Horned Helmets [0:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=54s) The Veksø helmets [03:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=216s) The Horse Twins and Twin Chiefs of the Nordic Bronze Age [04:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=287s) Horned Chiefs in Scandinavian Rock Art [05:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=346s) Bronze Age Rock Art of Galicia [07:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=451s) Iberian Warrior Stelae [08:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=527s) Bronze Figurines of the Nuragic Civilization [11:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=675s) Video Sponsorship [12:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=747s) Sea Peoples Images at Medinet Habu [14:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=865s) Horned Helmets of the Near East [15:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=936s) Bronze Figurines from Enkomi [16:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=1008s) Bull Iconography of Minoan Crete and Mycenaean Greece [17:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=1036s) Horns at Dendra and the Mycenaean Warrior Vase [18:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=1094s) Central European Trade Links [19:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=1185s) The Meanings Behind Horned Helmets [22:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IUWvk4MuNw&t=1354s) Interconnectivity in the Bronze Age ## Sources [[kristiansen-larsson2005]] [[modlinger2020]] [[vandkildeIDK]] [[vandkildeIDK2]]
