My lists (of the c. 1000 pieces) comprising the findspot/whereabout of each helmet (at least the information that it exists/existed somewhere). There are c. 300 Corinthians in existence (mentioned by Pflug in 1988) of which I have no informations at all.
For each helmet there is a "fact file" (in work) which has the following informations:
- Best available Picture
- Catalogue-number
- Type
- Findspot/-date
- Present/former whereabouts
- Material
- Dimensions
- Date
- Remarks (inscriptions etc.)
- Bibliography
Concerning the pictures, I collect what I can but have only some hundred original photos made by me in the museums (of different quality). The rest is from the Internet, scans from books or descriptions found elsewhere (I never planned to make these viewable to the public).
The main purpose of this work is to have an overall view of the existing helmets as a base for future work regarding typology, geographical concentration and to have a useful bibliography.
By the way it is interesting to note how many cotradicting inventory-numbers you can find in the literature :roll:
