We’ve already covered some shocking medieval misconceptions in the previous two videos, but let’s delve into a few more, shall we?
Picture a viking in your mind right now. Are they wearing a horned helmet? Not that we have evidence of, anyway. According to History.com, the legend likely comes from the 1800s when Scandinavian artists popularized nomadic raiders wearing horned helmets. But horned helmets were used in the Bronze Age.

Another misconception is that life expectancy in the Middle Ages was around 30 years old. If someone was to make it to their 25th birthday, they would likely live to be around 50 years old. Since this is an average, many people would have lived into their 70s and 80s.

It’s also inaccurate that people during the Middle Ages didn’t travel. Records show that medieval people traveled and even moved to other parts of a country. Many people also made pilgrimages to see religious sights.
