Worth mentioning that a lot of helmets are reconstructed when conserved - museums find great difficulty in leaving a helmet 'as found' and have to turn it into something presentable (which can often include considerable amounts of surgery). If you have a look through the pages of JRMES you'll find some of these, or take a look at the recent volume I cited in another thread about the stuff dredged from the Rhine at Xanten.<br>
