Drinking Horns have been used around the globe for thousands of years by many cultures. Pre-technological from the Americas to Scandinavia, Mongolia, Africa, the Middle East and many others utilized the shed horns of animals for drinking cups. The shed horns were also used for items such as bowls, utensils, carry horns for liquids-powders-medicines, etc and ceremonial objects. The horn material has many uses for wilderness as well as modern living.

The steer horn is one of the most versatile and easily accessible horns today. Ways Of The Wild Institute is now offering hand polished steer horns to use as drinking horns. Of course you could use them for a variety of items, but the main intent of these are for drinking cold or hot liquids.

Each horn measures approximately 6 inches in length and 2 1/2 inches across the opening. A perfect size for an outdoor or indoor drinking cup.
