The Veksø Helmets, dating back to the Bronze Age (circa 3,000 ybp), are iconic artifacts discovered in Denmark in 1942. Found near Veksø, these ceremonial helmets are made of bronze and are notable for their intricate design and craftsmanship.
Characterized by their bird-like features, the helmets have extended beaks and large, round eye-holes, resembling a bird's head. The presence of decorative feathers or horns suggests they were likely used for ritualistic purposes rather than for combat. These helmets reflect the sophisticated metalworking skills of the time, showcasing the importance of symbolism and ritual in Nordic Bronze Age societies.
The discovery of the Veksø Helmets offers valuable insights into the cultural and religious practices of ancient Scandinavian peoples. Their intricate designs and the context in which they were found suggest they played a role in ceremonial events, possibly connected to sun worship or shamanistic rituals.
Today, the Veksø Helmets are housed in the National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen. They continue to be a subject of fascination and study, shedding light on the rich and complex belief systems of prehistoric Northern Europe. #nordic#denmark #zealand #nordicbronzeage #ancienteuropeans #veksø #denmark

"The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." The regulator took order for the search and seizure operation from Judge Purushottam B Jadhav, Sebi Special Judge / Additional Sessions Judge. One thing that Telegram now offers to all users is the ability to “disappear” messages or set remote deletion deadlines. That enables users to have much more control over how long people can access what you’re sending them. Given that Russian law enforcement officials are reportedly (via Insider) stopping people in the street and demanding to read their text messages, this could be vital to protect individuals from reprisals. Channels are not fully encrypted, end-to-end. All communications on a Telegram channel can be seen by anyone on the channel and are also visible to Telegram. Telegram may be asked by a government to hand over the communications from a channel. Telegram has a history of standing up to Russian government requests for data, but how comfortable you are relying on that history to predict future behavior is up to you. Because Telegram has this data, it may also be stolen by hackers or leaked by an internal employee. This ability to mix the public and the private, as well as the ability to use bots to engage with users has proved to be problematic. In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup. Similarly, security researchers found a network of deepfake bots on the platform that were generating images of people submitted by users to create non-consensual imagery, some of which involved children.
