Corinthian and Illyrian Helmets in Glasgow Museums

[Ross Cowan]

Glasgow Museums has five ancient bronze helmets in its collections: two Corinthians, an Illyrian, a Montelparo and a Montefortino (see Ancient Warfare I.3 for details). The helmets are kept in storage, but I was able to take some photos while working in the Arms and Armour collection back in 2004/5.I have posted sets of the helmets here:
