Leather cheek-guards on Roman helmets?
#38
Well, thank you all for your replies!
It seems that most of you share my suspicion concerning the source in question.
So, no smoking gun – no leather cheek pieces on the reconstruction of a late Augustan Montefortino-helmet but metal cheek guards of the early imperial type instead.
