The "helm of dread" (or "helm of terror" by some names) is a powerful symbol in Norse mythology, used for centuries as a talisman of protection and strength.

He is mentioned in several Old Norse poems, including the "Hávamál" and the "Völsunga Saga".

Each of its eight spokes represents one of the directions and symbolizes the wearer's ability to protect themselves from harm coming from all directions. According to other sources, it is also associated with inner strength and wisdom.
