Feathers on Hellenistic Helmets
#3
Just a comment. Feathers were not "hellenistic".

A browse through the Persues image base will show you feathers along side crests from the Archaic Age if not earlier.

Wars is above all psychology. If you appear impresive big mean nast and "martial" (whatever that means in various periods) the less people will hold their own against you. Impressive appearance helps on this.

Kind regards
