A fascinating read. One has to love the Swiss hillbillies still wearing helmets in the Roman period which had been out of date for hundreds of years and making them from wood.
Also, it appears that the famous Agen/Port helmet from tomb 32 in this necropolis was painted all over in red colour!
enjoy!
