New Late Roman Helmet from the Fernpass, Austria
#96
What strikes me as odd is the wideness of the brow band. How the heck would this helmet sit on your head. The nasal piece would be down by your chin!?

And the "damaged" areas almost appear to have been "cut" out and not simply corroded away....

Could someone at one point have modified an original Roman helmet?
