Quote:YAIKES!!!!!!!!!! to the toledo one and the site from italy.....

so... if the rings were portrayed so many times...

wouldnt that give to think there might at least be a shred of evidence they existed?

M.VIB.M.
I don't see why, especially if the explanation were for sculptural decorative purposes, not actual military. The Toledo helm is a fake, and the Montefortino posted above has been doctored with horse furniture. There's no evidence of top rings on Roman helmets AFAIK PRIOR TO THE GUTTMANN NIEDERMORMTER.

Bear in mind that almost every helmet on the columns has a ring, but none of the ones on the Adamklissi Monument which clearly shows soldiers compatible with the archaeological record.
