Late Roman helmets - typology
#9
Quote:You have types and findspots.

Two main types of Late Roman helmets:
1) Ridge helmets
2) Spangenhelmets

Ridge helmets come in two types:
1a) Berkasovo (like the Berkasovo, Budapest, Deurne, others)
1b) Intercisa (like the Intercisa, Augst, Worms, others).

I think it's a lot more complicated than that, actually! There are at least three types (sub-types) of Spangenhelmes, for example! Have a look at the end of the Hedlmet database!
