I've been studying photos of this helmet for decades. It's easy to get drawn into and then lost in the strangely beautiful and complex ornamentation while losing sight of structural features. If the face plate (or death mask) were to be removed the basic design seems to have a lot more in common with the earlier Roman helmet than the later Viking era helmet. The neck guard and hinged cheek protectors (although both quite exaggerated in the Sutton Hoo helmet) are important clues.
What a treasure. If you ever have the chance to see the British Museum, take it. If you can, spend as many days there as you can. One could spend 8 hours a day, for 5 days in a row and still not see everything on display in its full glory. Every nook, every cranny, every wall and corner holds a rich and wonderful story.
From the age of 6 in the colder months of the year My father took me very Sunday to the British Museum. No church Culture.I bought my first estampe At 12 a Leonardo de Vinci drawing in sepia of a lady. As a Nation people do not realise how privileged they are to have these artefacts of History to study. I stopped visiting at 15yr's. When I went to study in Paris . There i had the Louvre. It did not hold the same attraction . Preferring art . There I was delighted by the impressionist .
You seem like a delightful person Sonia , and you have, very smart parents or a very smart father . I was raised by scholars and culture was my food . WE didn't have museums , but i was raised by an archaeologist and theologian working for the university of Reykjavik and Copenhagen (father) and an anthropo-ethnologist (mother) working for the UNESCO documenting intangible world heritage . Excavating sites were my playgrounds as a kid and by the age of 14 i had lived in over 20 countries, my favourite being the middle eastern ones, and living with the Inuits and the Native in the US and Australia . Strangely enough , Nature and the wild fauna and flora were my obsession, far more than people or their culture . Today I am a veterinarian and ethologist , but museums are definitely my favorite places to spent any given time off i can afford . Art , science and craftsmanship are by far the greatest legacies in human history.
This helmet is very similar to the helmets found in Vendel Sweden, although they are a bit more simple they are still very similar. The motives are the same, the technique in making the metal, the way the person was buried, etc. In this time the Swedish king lives just a few miles from Vendel in Old Uppsala in one of the largest halls in Northern Europe. Is this a member from the royal family in Uppsala?
They're men with horned helmets being displayed on the murals on the helmet. They're not headdresses. They're Anglo-Saxon warriors with horned helmets.
I am lucky to live a few Miles away from Sutton hoo.I did a dna test,I knew i was Half German,and half Welsh ,But the dna came back with a significant scandinavian percentage,I was told it was because the Vikings were in Wales.Just so mindblowing.I love visiting this site . Now with my nieces and nephews
i went to a normal comprehensive school and this helmet was on the front of all of our history text books, being a snottly little average kid i didnt take much notice. most of the covers and inside photographs of these books were filled with graffitied cocks and fannys and crude funny speech bubbles on most the pictures of historical moments, many, many, years later visiting London i seen his helmet for real and it floored me, that was the bloody helmet that was on my class school books....then the research began, the old saying "if i only knew then what i know now" !
They do not take credit for other people's achievements they list off all the nations that are featured in their exhibits, im greek, and I'm glad all the treasures are in the british museum God knows that Greece could afford to maintain these treasures the same way Britain does. I'm just glad that their exists a place where we can examine and marvel at them, and where they are safe.
The first time I really remember seeing an image of this was a picture of the replica used on the cover Bernard Cornwell's retelling of the Arthur legend. The Winter King
its amazing the cultures, peoples of many ethnicities all mixed over so many years giving Britain the most amazingly rich history and artefacts, adding to who we are all now............and then all let down by some of the idiotic comments left here!
It cannot be a coincidence that this god mask was given back to the English folc on the eve of ww2, as we were about to engage in a war against fellow Teutons.

Sutton hoo = west geatic dialect = väst götisk in to days swedish language. Yes it was a dynasty from the time when the anglians and the west geats together made Anglia to the leading might. The west geats were very forward and cultural people and their king Hygelac was a historical king and Beowulf was fighting for him and became king after Hygelac fell in a battle around 521 in Angeln. I know where Beowulf killed Grendel and died at the rich mans hill and was buried on the Whale mountain 11 km from my villa 90 km north of Gothenburg. It´s a true story.
The English are a West Germanic people though they came from Denmark and the border of Germany. They came to Briton Vogican king of the Britons invited then over after the Pics caused some shit, but they said they wanted to stay because the land was better then were there were from. so they kicked the ass of the Britons out of Kent set them packing to London. Any Briton was called Welsh meaning slave. My gandad farther name was Cadby meaning Nordic meaning settlement. So one of them was a Viking Settler in England.

@Van Aser The Grendels were beings looking like the figures with eagel like heads on the sumerian tablets, I say they were operated Pteranodons Beowulf pointed at the arm which was cut off from Grendel during the fight in Hrodgards beer hall. They examined it when it was hanging from a beam in the hall. Here he had planned to stuff me into this leathersack he said.
The answer is in the video. The boat dissolved as well leaving only an impression. It's common for instance to find the impression of a wooden wall or palisade buried though the wall itself has long ago rotted.
You can not imagine how mistrustful I am of the authorities calling in an "expert" to displace the original discoverer. This is a heavily pablumized tale.
@@callummason6589 DNA says other wise the English are 60% Native Briton and 40% Anglo Saxon the DNA says these 2 got together about 858AD. yes between 449 and 858 they were pure Germanic. That means they kept apart along time but started bonking each other after that date? So the Anglo Saxons didnt kill all the Britons they were still there just married them after a little while.
+Rob T The British Anglo-Saxons, the continental Anglo-Saxons and the North Germanic people had a very similar material culture until the Norman and Frankish conquest. Most Germanic people were culturally alike.
The English (Angles) were the most northerly of the west germanic tribes and had a lot of dealings with the southern swedes. East Anglia and Sweden even bear the same coat of arms. That is no coincidence.
The Jutes or Eotas were a Saxon grouping who lived on the borders of the Franks, who they were heavily influenced by. This is borne out by the close relationship the Jutes of Kent and Hampshire had with the Franks in the 5th and 6th centuries AD. It is a myth that the Jutes came from Jutland.
+marius offing That's one theory. But it's not as widely accepted as the Jutland theory. Bede wrote that the Jutes lived next to the Angles yet on the opposite side of the Saxon-Angle border which places them in Jutland. The Frankish infulence on the kingdom of Kent can be attributed to it's earlier christianisation and proximity to Frankia. Which are post-migration.
Very interesting perspective on the early days of the British Isles. As to the ridiculous arguments about bronze or iron being better or worse, hammered or soft, Chinese or European - the argument was settled by the total eclipse of bronze I favor of iron weapons. Case closed. I know of no bronze armed army that prevailed for long against any iron armed army. Iron led to steel, and most peoples the world over developed steel at about the same time and many had excellent steel for edged weapons, if a warrior could afford them. Many Ottoman sabers, Spanish Toledos, Mogul swords, and even African examples are made of excellent steel. Bronze sword making is a beautiful but obsolete art that is being re-found today. Viking Era swords of fine steel (actually made in Germany) - are as good as anything produced commercially today. All this, according to the internet, so it must be true....
He uses British quite loosely. The Anglo-Saxons were not British, spoke a language called Old English but no living English person would understand. I think credit should be give to the people, the ethnic groups that made those objects.
"Clearly unrobbed"?? Part of it could have been robbed prior to its collapse. Why do i say that? Because the "Saxon" horde found in 2009 looks an awful lot like this horde with many pieces also crushed, and the garnets seem to have the same special 'cut' to it. I believe they are the same treasure that got separated at some point in time. ua-cam.com/video/6ofCNSfF3vM/v-deo.html
Sutton Hoo dates from around 625 if it is the grave of Raedwald King of East Anglia and Bretwalda, the first Viking raids on Britain were in 793, so it can't be Norse
Sutton Hoo, "Page one of British history". Drivel. It's "English" history from Scandinavia. British history starts with Celtic Britons and continues in Wales, the only true Britons left.
Scandinavian and Germanic culture is inextricably linked with Britain. It's shame that we don't have; rather than the EU, a Northern Alliance of Germanic / Scandic / Celtic nations - it would be a damn sight better than what the EU is in its current form.
korming _____ You misunderstand the name. The 'British' in 'British' museum refers to its geographical location - in Britain. The contents, as in most other world class museums, come from all over the world. Hope this helps.
like the Metropolitan museum of art in NY, they believe preserving history and sharing forgotten cultures reveals how connected people were. knowledge is a threat now and should be outlawed.
Bloody hell, you'd swear they discovered the holy grail . This is a fucking helmet . If you compare it to Japanese warriors helmets, this one doesn't even make it out of the craftsman workshop . ua-cam.com/video/XZumSUdv7dU/v-deo.html
A clear sham. The only pieces left were the little bits of rust they glued onto an armature. This was the second attempt because the first one wasn't sexy enough. They just made it up. What a load of crap.
"...spanning over 2 million years of global history and culture..." WTF? I always knew the pyramids were older than Egyptologists claimed...and then there's Atlantis...
Not really. It is our culture too. Our days are still named after our old gods. Wodensday= Wednesday, Thursday=Thors day etc. They were our God's and it was our culture too. England is literally named after a tribe from modern day Denmark after all.

The Sutton Hoo burial is dated to 610 - 635 AD so more like 1,400 years old
'Redwald' means educated/councelled ruler. 'Bretwald' means wide ruler. 'Athelwald' means noble ruler. They are titles.
