Ave, Gaius, and Theo ,
I would also like to have a copy of said Thelenhoffen. I believe there are some earlier threads about said helm and I think it includes links to ARCHEOS in Italy who not only makes a copy of it, but another variation on it. While I would like to have a copy for display, I would like to have something a little less Hollywoodish for my re-enacting. I fear that the Thelen helm is as close as we are going to get to an actual "Attic" type officer's helm. BTW, Comitatus' web site is down...changing servers perhaps? And no, I was not being sarcastic about using Severus Acceptus'
helm for my late Roman Officer impression. TBT, I really admire Comitatus organization.
Salve, my friends, for now,
