Helmet: chin strap and padding

Quote:Peter Thanks, laudes
I agree with all except the interpretation of "embroidered" in the Homeric passage. I will look it through though.

Kind regards

Those first two pottery paintings that you posted, how do you know they depict arming caps and not just normal caps?
Ruben

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
