Why has the Roman helmet no Noseguard?
#1
Salve omnibus,

a few weeks ago I recieved my Imperial Gallic G helmet, and tried it on and experimented how it worked and especially why the cheek guards had this shape, which I came to the conclusion that they were optimised not to impede vision and breathing. What I wondered was, why it had no noseguard. It would not impede vision at all and since being above the nose, would not make breathing more difficult either. Hence the question, why did they not just add one?

So does anyone know more on this?
