Hello Everyone,
I have recently been reading through D'Amato & Sumner "Arms and Armour of the Imperial Roman Soldier" and came across this "attic" helmet held in the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe, Hamburg. I am already aware of "fakes" such as the Toledo helmet, however I am interested to know if anyone has further information on this specific example or any theories regarding its authenticity. Any insight would be highly appreciated.
Lorenzo.
