Need a suitable Germanic hat

[Lord_Kalen]

any good references for a Germanic , or perhaps a Celtic hat ? preferably one that offers a tad of a brim for shade ?

attending a few SCA events this summer has shown the deffinant need for one , and I am trying to work towards a "living history" grade kit

This one was found in the Tollund moor:

It is made of dog pelt sewn together.

A similar one was found in Sogards Mose.

Perhaps a bit too warm for summer...

Happy dog hunting!

You can even see what it looks like when wearing it here:

Was this hat the one from the Tollund man or a different one? I'm having some trouble finding a source for the info on what material it was made from, (ie - dog skin). Can anybody point me in the right direction for further information?

Yes, this is the one the Tollund man wore.
