Crista Transversa

[Marcus Iulius Chattus]

And during Trajans Dacian Wars, the Helmet of the Legionarys where modified with crossed reinforcing bars, clearly shown on the column. The Gallic-G Helmet from Berzovia shows clearly that the bars go directly over the crest-attachments, so no crest can be worn on this helmets. Maybe, some Centurions wear Crista Transversa and some don´t do it! I think, if you copy a Centurion from one of the gravestones with Crista, you make no mistake. If you don´t wear a crista, because it´s really not clear, you don´t make a mistake, too.
