I saw in the Osprey book Roman Army from Caesar to Trajan, and in one of the plates it shows a provincial legate with an odd parade helmet refered to as the "Autun helmet" ? I've looked in the database and cant find it unless im not naming it right and over the internet and cant find anything about it. Anybody know anything about this piece? Pics?

This is the Autun Helmet....

Kind of an Apulo-Corinthian with several thin layers making up a laurel decoration

If you use the search function here on RAT, you will find a lot more pictures of this helmet.
