CONNECTIONS: Powder horns, both beautiful and useful - The Berkshire Edge

Powder horns were engraved as a “diary” of where the soldier or frontiersman had been, a map of where they needed to go, or simply art on an available “canvas.” Powder horns were made from animal horns, perhaps a cow or ox. They were worn across the chest, secured by leather straps. The horn was hollowed out and used to carry black gun powder.
