There is some discussion about the true whereabouts of the Horn of Winter.
The True Horn
It is theorized that the cracked horn discovered by Ghost in the dragonglass cache at the Fist of the First Men is the true Horn of Winter.
Evidence For
- Hiding the true Horn with plenty of dragonglass would prevent the Others from finding it and using it to bring down the Wall.
- The Fist of the First Men, being (relatively) close to the Wall and a stronghold known to the Watch, is a sensible place for a former Watchman to have hidden an artifact of great power.
- It's one of two horns in the books whose purpose is not yet divined.
