It's such an old invention that no one really knows who came up with the idea first.

They were Viking helmets.
According to the museum staff that have actual Viking relics in parts of Europe; Viking helmets didn't have horns on them. It must have been a Hollywood film that got the idea going. Because that's where nearly everyone first saw horns on Viking helmets...the movies. ======================== "Der Ring des Nibelungen," Wagner's opera, is what started the idea of Vikings having helmets with horns and wings.
Viking helmets were typically made from iron or steel, providing durability and protection in battle. They often featured a rounded shape and were sometimes reinforced with additional metal plates for strength. Contrary to popular belief, most Viking helmets did not have horns; this is a myth popularized in modern culture. Some helmets also included leather or padding on the interior for comfort and a better fit.
