Raedwald had some damned good taste. There's some masterpieces of the period in his collection.
Indeed there is! Thank you so much for watching!
Where did they get this gold? Byzantium? Rome? N.Africa?
Love the Anglo Saxon period. Thanks for sharing.
The blood still lives
Damn, everyone was super good looking in the past.
Right?, i continuously wonder where they dug up these much valued images of these ancient peoples. Just fantastic!

I know. What happened? Cheetos? Were they our downfall?!?
I would be covered in dirt and manure from keeping care with the farm animals most likely
Oh and barefoot and pregnant making soap
"Extensive measurements of the skulls show that our medieval ancestors had more prominent facial features than modern man, with a noticeably larger lower jaw"
Some fantastic history you've brought to life here. Excellent 👌. Im familiar with the Sutton Hoo finds and the photos of the objects. The background stories and the reconstruction of the helmet are new to me and fascinating. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks for this amazing video! I took my children to this amazing site years ago and I have seen the helmet at the British museum and it's awesome @
A lot of research went into the video! That is awesome!
Around 3:30 it’s not just Scandinavian mythology. The Anglo Saxons, like other Germanic peoples, had the same ancestral religion just with different names and slight variations in myths. It isn’t influenced by Scandinavian mythology. Rather, the designs on the helmet, the ship burial etc. are cultural/ethnic cousins of Scandinavian culture.
Otherwise a fantastic video! I’ll definitely be watching more of these.
The Angles came from the Jutland peninsula which is in Scandinavia, but yes they shared an older Indo European Pantheon of gods but due to the Eddas surviving in Iceland we know more myths from Norse culture. Cheers from Mercia
The Germanic tribes have their origins in the Nordic bronze age culture sphere.

Ok, this is now my favorite among your videos to date. Thanks for sharing your passion for this period of history.
Thank you so much for watching Jared! It means a lot! Glad you liked the video! A lot of research went into it!
I live in Suffolk where sutton hoo is. Fantastic history in my home region ❤❤❤
Shame the majestic view down to Woodbridge has been blocked by Tree Huggers planting trees to deliberately block the view.
Sorry couldn't be here 3 hours ago. But i just listened and loved it. Great and very interesting! Thank you History Profiles. Always enjoyable watching your videos

🙏💜⚡
Thank you so much for watching! I hope you enjoyed!
I loved this one. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for watching!
First stop that popped in my head, gave me a bit of a chuckle was the time that little Richard was in one of those award shows where he was going to be presenting an award to a certain Entertainer and when you said hello the winner is ME. And then he went on the tirade about him starting all of rock and roll which was exactly what people like the Beatles the stones even Elvis Presley and so on said to him that if it wasn't for him there would be no rock and roll so he was talking that way people gave him an Applause Standing Ovation for his contribution and then when he opened up the thing to say who the winner was he said well what do you know it is me. So it when I saw that I was thinking I know who would have worn that, Little Richard. R.I.P.
If you ever get the chance to goto sutton hoo go.i went last weekend.the mounds/graves are stunning!you can feel it in the air that something magical happened there.🔥
Thank you for the video very educational. It really makes you think who is buried there. I would like to think it's him⚔️
Indeed! Thank you so much for watching! I also think it was King Rædwald of East Anglia!
@@historyprofiles 👍🏻 have a good weekend
Super interesting! Good video sir!
Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you 🤩. What beautiful craftsmanship on the Henry but I’m sure this was done as a picture after finding it. As the original one was rusty. 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Thank you for watching Dee! The helmet was restored as a replica version, yes the original is all rusted!
@@historyprofiles
Well that person deserves a big 👋. Creativity at its best 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Just to make it clear, Odin was the name the Norse later gave to the Germanic Woden.
Some of the Anglo-Saxons- the Angles and the Jutes - were from what is now Denmark. The Saxons were from Schleswig Holstein in North East Germany, now called Niedersachsen - lower Saxony.
Edit: North West Germany.
Optimum!. Good King Penda the Pagan of Mercia lives!.
Indeed! Thank you for watching I hope you enjoyed!!
2:59 it means “wide ruler”
Wide ruler, Britain ruler, all the same
I once read that the helmet is made of 7 metals: gold silver copper, etc. Don't know if true but would be interesting if true.
fascinating! i've read articles and watched videos on Sutton Hoo but, have never heard of this story. if this is the case......wow! very interesting. now i need to do some research. thanks!
Frisian from the coasts of the Netherlands and Germany also had Odin/Wodin. This not only Scandinavia.

Epic
Hope you enjoyed the video!!
King Raedwald or his eldest son who died in battle.
In the late 19th century the Sheriff of Salt Lake, Utah wasinvolved in several shootings in which he was protected by his bear skin coat. Even though shot, the bullets could not penetrate it.This, I think, may be rhe point of the Berserk (bear shirt). A kind of mystical armor.
There are ship burials in Norway and Denmark too, so what was so special with the Swedish and British?
6:44 i interpret that its not woden but gungnir the spirit of wodans spear
It very well could be! Great interpretation
I’ve always kind of hoped that it was Beowulf who was buried there.
Was there much difference between Worden and Odin? I was always taught Anglo Saxons worshipped Worden, could of been a misspelling in the manuscripts. Great video!
It's Woden and yes, it's the same guy.
Its the same God just said differently! I believe the Norse called hin Odin, and Germanic peoples called him Woden
@@historyprofiles Anglo Saxon developed from West Germanic whereas Old Norse came from North Germanic, but interestingly the reconstructed form from proto indo European is closer to the AS being Wodenaz. Great Video Cheers from Mercia
We don't know is there was a difference between Woden and Odin within the anglo saxons and Scandinavian myths as the anglo saxons became Christians only a few hundred years of migrating to Britain and much of there myths were lost. But we do know that we are talking about the same god. The anglo saxons spoke a west germanic language and the norse spoke a north germanic language. Just different ways of pronouncing the same god. The early proto germanic name for woden/odin is believed to be Wodanaz
"Saxons from Scandinavia". K, Northern nowadays Germany is Scandinavia, too ;)
Some Saxons we’re from southern Denmark, and I think Denmark counts as Scandinavia! So yes !
Redwall
I wore it to a few parties but had to give it back to the museum and pay money to the police to stay out of prison for taking it.
So Odin wore horns?
Our helmet....🇩🇪🤔
Odinic Dancers [3:44] are recognised by Odin's Ravens, flying from their heads: injury to one hemisphere of the brain effects short term, conscious Thought (Huginn), the other long term, un-conscious Memory (Muninn). Such dancers are in physical and mental debate, the will (the 8 legged horse, seen from above) is informed by the bird between the brow. The bucks stops with this crown's wearer.
The 8 legged horse would prob be Odin's horse wouldn't it?
@@rhzyo That's how I read it, but other helms in the same style have a boar on the crest, and I don't think Frey's boar had 8 legs, so it could be an accident of the panelling design.
wasn't Odin, their god was Woden and predates the Vikings worshiping him as Odin
They wi find Viking Ships in the next decade all over the US.
I did in my dream last night
what a beautiful dream it must have been
It was Horton. Horton wore a Hoo. 😂
Berserkes were also female & feared just as much as the men
I can not fathom what would possess a powerful and successful pagan king to throw away his upbringing and convert to Christianity. Such a shame.
Since when were Anglo-Saxons buried in boats? Just this one example so most likely British or Viking. Remember from the off the Jute-Anglo-Saxons intermarried with the British too
The Saxons were very much Vikings, with the same art work style, similar but earlier ships, and Gods, and coming from the same areas.
…you mean hoo wore it. Sorry.
It seems misleading to describe the imagery as "Norse". To an uneducated viewer, this might evoke the Viking Age or other periods of Norse cultural influence. It would probably have been more accurate to identify it as Germanic or to say that Woden imagery is reminiscent of Norse, Odinic imagery.
First
Thank you for watching !!!
Those people were supposed to be barbarians who didn't have any class. Dark age Neanderthals. I love Archeologists and historians being corrected.
Just here to say Christianity is not the natural religion of those of the British isles let alone Europe in general. Listen to the ancestors, awaken the blood
"Who Wore the Sutton Hoo Helment?" More importantly, who cares?
Me !
@@historyprofiles 😝
People whe decend from Anglo Saxons like me !!
