Plus i remember when i was kid and went in my grandfathers village in Olympia a man found a Corinthian helmet in his field and wore it while being on the tracter for fun till he gave it away to the archaeologists 8)
not to mention the destruction of Mycenean mummy, Omphalos of Delphi and many more.
To be honest if i had found a helmet in such good shape i wouldnt resist to wear it for a photo
