Why do Brits claim this helmet is Anglo-Saxon?

Exactly my point, they have the same eyebrow protection as the ones found in Scandinavia. Note that there are at least 30+ in Scandinavia and 2 in England. And it clearly says the man who made the Sutton Hoo was an immigrant from Scandinavia. He simply used the same design that multiple helmets already had.

Yes a Brit on /pol/ did.

One random melt on /Pol/ does not speak for all of the English. Sage

"Anglo-Saxon"

Tell me of all the finds of similar helmets in "Anglia", I'll give you a hint: None

Yeah because finding the grave of an Anglo-Saxon tribal chieftain is literally a one in a million chance.

So basically there's nothing to back up the fact that any of these helmets are from Denmark (Anglia). There is one single fragment in Denmark which is from a helmet exactly like the one found in Norway. Gjermundbu helmet..

^And that's from the Viking age 793 -1042.

None of the types from the Vendel Period (550 - 793) in Sweden has been found in Denmark.

It really shouldn't be hard to find, seeing as they pop up everywhere in Sweden, fragments of the brow protections, mostly in Uppsala and secondly in an Isolated island called Gotland where multiple fragments (those brow protections).. like pic related

So they have simply made their way down to Denmark along with wealthy Swedish vikings who joined in their plunders later in the Viking age, and some Dane who settled in East Anglia in England decided to copy one of the helmets from some Swede.
