Greek Helmets. with or without crests.... ??

[Gulan]

I will also agree with Giannis K. Hoplite. Same as we can agree that there are number of ways shield was constructed, there is a number of ways crests were. The Cretan method you suggested I like the best - personally. I see it as pre-decorated just by it's texture, I like the idea.

I may have been a little agressive on the organic theory, but just because bronze piece was immediately labeled as votive.

I will conclude this by completely agreeing with Caesar - there were and are more than one way to skin a cat!
