Quote:The Theilenhofen helmet originally had a browguard, according to the excavation report fragments of it were found along with the helmet. The brow guard was probably of a sheet-metal type, like on many Niederbieber types.
I listed this helmet as questionable because the publication (Klumbach/Wamser) states that the "(...) the helmet front was reinforced by a horizontal bar of which securely assignable fragments have NOT been found (...)".
