The Archaic period in Greece is generally thought of as around 800 BC to 480 BC. This helmet dates to around 520 BC to 480 BC so I classed it as Archaic. :wink:

You may beleive the helmet is later, http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=q2BRj...an&f=false
but I feel we should be more conservative and perhaps not so proscriptive.
PS Did you get the PM I sent you on gladiator equipment last week........
