Well... As I can see from the images posted here, the helmet has thracian,attic,phrigian and greek influences but also shows the simplicity and functionality of a roman design. It could be an early roman helmet of a soldier wanting to show that his family has a long military tradition. The romans claim their origin from the people that escaped Troy under the leadership of Aeneas and troy was a thracian/attic/phrigian town so ... who knows ... just an ideea...
