A Flying Beast.

The Sutton Hoo helmet.
This is one of just four complete helmets to survive from Anglo-Saxon England. It has been painstakingly reconstructed from the shattered condition in which it was found. The Sutton Hoo helmet's exceptional appearance have made it an icon of the early medieval period.
The helmet consists of an iron cap with a crest, neck-guard, cheek pieces and face-mask. It was originally covered with tinned copper alloy panels, decorated with animal and warrior motifs.
Viewed together, the helmet's mouth, nose and eyebrows form the image of a flying beast.
Dating from the Early A.D. 600s.
