Why did odin have wings on his helmet?
My suggestion is that it has to do with the association between Odin and Mercury, an association already made by Tacitus, who claimed that the Germanic peoples worshiped Mercury. This association manifests itself in the parallelity of the name of the third weekday in the Latin and many of the Germanic languages. The third day of the week is called Mercoledi ("the day of Mercury") in Italian and Wednesday ("Woden's day") in English, and Onsdag ("Odin's day") in Norwegian, Danish and Swedish. Mercury, the messenger of the Roman gods, had wings on his ankles and was often portrayed with wings on his helmet as well. It seems plausible to suggest that when the iconography of Germanic mythology was created in mid 19th century art, the artists turned to the iconography of Mercury when they created the winged helmet of Odin. I am not aware of any mention of Odin wearing a winged helmet in old Germanic sources. (Eilif)
