HELMETS DATABASE, UPDATE & REQUEST
#5
SOCL:
I think they wear attic helmets.

Caratacus:
Maybe you could be interested in this one too:

This helmet has no name according to Robinson's typology because it was found in year 2001 in the civilian settlement of Brigetio by archeologist László Borhy and is currently displayed in the Klapka György Museum in Komárom.

Mr. Borhy states only that this is a weisenau type helmet with remains of 'winglike forms' on the front of the skull (eyebrows?) and it has three steps on the neckguard, very similar to the Italic G helmet.

As far as I know the helmet was first published in last year's ROMEC held in Budapest but there is some reference in the book Militaria aus der Zivilstadt von Brigetio by Mr. Borhy as well.

If you are interested I got some pictures about the helmet made by one of my friends plus the scanned pages of the book relevant to this helmet.
Valete,
