It remained in use until the early modern period, especially in the Germanic areas of Europe. It was especially popular in Scandinavia during the early Middle Ages. The drinking horn is mentioned in both the Prose Edda and the Song Edda. Although fragments of Viking Age horns are rarely found in archaeological excavations, the number of surviving metal drinking horn fittings suggests that their use was much more widespread than the finds of actual horns suggest.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe drinking horn offered here is handmade from cattle horn, polished, and decorated with an engraved \u003ci\u003eValknut\u003c\/i\u003e symbol surrounded by a sequence of runes. The Valknut, a symbol consisting of three intertwined triangles, appears on various archaeological finds attributed to the Germanic peoples. Although to this day one can only speculate about its true meaning, some experts tend to assume a connection with Odin, the father of the gods in Norse mythology (hence the alternative German name \u003ci\u003eWotan's knot\u003c\/i\u003e ). The Valknut has now found its place in modern culture and adorns many pieces of jewelry, talismans, and decorative objects. It is particularly popular among followers of Germanic Neopaganism (e.g., among followers of \u003ci\u003eÁsatrú\u003c\/i\u003e ).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhether in a modern home or recreating a medieval or Viking setting, this rustic and highly decorative vessel will be a real eye-catcher on any dining table.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e For hygienic reasons, the inside of the horn is painted food-safe, so you can enjoy your favorite beverage to the fullest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The scope of delivery includes a practical, easy-to-carry drinking horn stand made of hand-forged steel and featuring a simple principle: when you insert the drinking horn through the opening, the stand legs and the horn tip form a stable tripod. This means you can always store the drinking horn safely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A great gift idea for today's Viking or Pagan!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDetails:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Scope of delivery: drinking horn + metal stand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Material: Genuine cow horn (buffalo), iron stand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Valknut engraving with runes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Capacity: approx. 200 to 300 ml \u003cb\u003e*\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e- Weight (horn only): approx. 300 g \u003cb\u003e*\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Horn stand: Inner diameter: approx. 6 cm; Leg length: approx. 10 cm; Weight: approx. 120 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Our drinking horns are not calibrated and are therefore intended for private use only.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Drinking horns are not dishwasher-safe and should be thoroughly cleaned with warm water and a soft cloth before first (and after each) use.
