Hi, I am new here. I recently rekindled my interest in Roman history when I bought a reproduction helmet for my little brother ad figured I'd buy myself one as well.
I am sure this is a commonly asked question, however I cannot find an answer on google; what was the function of the band on the Galea helmet?
I doesn't appear to be a sun visor, nor have any practical function that is apparent, unless perhaps it was used as a mount for an additional part of the helmet.
