Heres a little mystery to excite the brain cells. A bit of a slow burn video but worth staying to the end. Enjoy.

Interesting, I have never heard that similar things are still in use.
Fascinating, I love seeing info like this! Must admit, I kept waiting for a correlation with missiles from an advanced alien society.

You are the second person to go down the phalic route, but I think there could be a lot more to these than that, if that is the main thing then why don't they look more like penises.
@Fernapple they all look like penis
Another, more recent example can be seen in the German "Pickelhaube." [en.wikipedia.org]. As the article suggest the earlier ones had horsehair plumes attached as a sort of ceremonial function. Later, I have heard, it was used to impale attackers. Somehow one can't dissociate a penis symbol since it was worn primarily by men.
