A Viking hood, uncovered in Herjolfsnes, Greenland, c.1400
Added 2019-03-26 11:20:44 +0000 UTCThis incredible Viking hood was uncovered from the Viking settlement of Herjolfsnes, part of the Eastern Settlement. It shows that the Vikings kept up with European fashions of the time, and the red dye on the fabric was perfectly preserved in the ice.

This is just so fascinating. I wonder why it was the fashion at the time to have a tail on the hood.
