Interesting article about the Kalkriese mask!
#16
Integral ears seem to be a later development and an extremely popular one in the Nijmegen region! IIRC there are about ten masks from Nijmegen and all have the integral ears.

Earlier masks which are attributed to regular gallic type helmets and cavalry types with ears moulded into the cheek guards don't have ears.

Examples are Vechten, Levy/White, the Axel Guttmann Collection and these odd ones..
