Roman helmet puzzles
#8
"IMHO, some of those "cavalry-sport" were used in combat and others at the hippika gymnasia. What is certain is that we cannot classify all these headpieces either as "cavalry-sport" or just "masked helmet", there are clearly different types." I completely agree- and the argument that vision is impaired doesn't work IMHO. Compared to the Sutton Hoo helmet or a medieval full helmet, vision would be about the same.<br>
