drinking horns
Curved ceremonial drinkware
Drinking horns are vessels made from hollowed animal horns, typically cattle or buffalo, used for consuming beverages.
Associated with Viking and medieval feasting traditions, they appear in historical reenactments, fantasy media, and ceremonial contexts.
Most cannot stand upright when full, requiring the drinker to drain them: He raised the drinking horn and downed the mead in one go.
