Lack of text does not equate to non-existence

Old Norse linguist Jackson Crawford says vikings did not have horned helmets because there is no record of horned helmets. First off, there is very little known of the ancient Norse (compared to other cultures) because not much text survived. Second, other people, like the Sherden, had horns on their helmets. Third, horned helmets are cool.

I added a stanza

Yo ho, all hands, hoist the colors high.

Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die.

Land ho, grab your shovels, search for treasure you'll try.

I'm writing a fantasy / historical fiction novel set in iron age Norway. Roughly 400 BC. I've done some research, but I'd love an expert opinion. I can email a pdf. I can pay a lil money for you to critique my story.

In my fantasy book, Mjölnir, has a core of a collapsed star (neutron star) encased within it. Its blue light shines out the runes therein.

Am I correct on this?

sowulo, hagalaz, gebo, and ansuz.

Sun, hail, gift, gods

Falling star that is a gift for the gods
