The History of Drinking Horn Use

Drinking horns are among the oldest types of drinking vessels, with their use documented since the Bronze Age across various cultures, from the Celts and Germanic tribes to the Scythians and, of course, the Vikings. For Norse warriors, the horn was not just a vessel but also a symbol of strength, wealth, and social status. They were used on ceremonial occasions, at feasts, in religious rituals, and for sealing oaths.

An Interesting Fact from History

Did you know that some of the most famous archaeological finds of drinking horns, such as the Golden Horns of Gallehus discovered in Denmark (though later stolen and melted down), were richly decorated with mythological scenes? This attests to their immense cultural and symbolic importance. Drinking from a horn was often associated with toasts to gods and heroes, and holding such a horn symbolically connects you with this ancient tradition.

Caring for Your New Drinking Horn

To ensure your new Mythrojan® drinking horn serves you well for a long time and retains its beauty:

• Wash the horn by hand with lukewarm water, possibly with a drop of mild soap (dish soap). Rinse thoroughly.
• Dry it carefully with a soft cloth immediately after washing.
• Never put it in the dishwasher.
• Avoid prolonged soaking in water.
• Protect the horn from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Important: This horn is not intended for hot drinks! Hot liquids could damage the horn.
• Caution: Not recommended for beverages with an alcohol content over 20%. Stronger alcoholic drinks or highly acidic liquids can damage the horn's internal sealant.
• To maintain its shine and natural moisture, you can occasionally rub the outer surface (and the dry inner surface, if accessible) lightly with a small amount of food-grade mineral oil or beeswax.

Origin and Design

This quality drinking horn was designed in the USA and meticulously crafted by skilled artisans in Nepal, ensuring the uniqueness of each Mythrojan® piece. It is a premium product that combines authentic historical design with modern quality standards.
