As everyone here knows, I'm both a history geek and a huge fan of all things Rohirrim. The Rohirrim culture and its related ME material culture was heavily influenced by Anglo Saxon cultural artifacts, including the wealth of items discovered at Sutton Hoo (another fascination of mine, both historically and archaeologically). The helm found at Sutton Hoo is particularly spectacular.
There's a new replica of the Sutton Hoo Helm, and I must admit that I'm VERY tempted to purchased It. EXTREMELY tempted. Take a look . . . http://www.kultofathena.com/product.asp ... auge+Steel
