Great Pics, Giannis.....I haven't seen this helmet before.Found in Italy you think? That might imply it once belonged to one of Pyrrhus' soldiers.
Looking at it, it does not appear ever to have had cheek-pieces...what do you think?
When we get the Greek Helmet Database up and running ( I am an optimist ! ), would these photos go in ? They are perfect for what is needed......even if they are copyright to someone else, permission may be sought and accreditation given.
