The following list of horn mounts and terminals is not intended to be exhaustive and merely reflects our attempt to categorise by region horn mounts discovered from the Viking Age. Additional finds and possible category changes are likely as our research continues.

* Denmark

Petersen considers the 17 drinking horns discovered in Norway to be of Britiah origin. Paterson suggests that the relative rarity of drinking horns in the archaeological record may be due to their fragile nature and the difficulty of detecting and excavating them rather than their actual rarity [PATERSON 2014:p.149] .
** Arhus. Mount decorated in Ringerike style. [GRAHAM-CAMPBELL 2013]
