Help IDing helmet

[Decebalus]

i disagree with your bad-taste remark about the Autun helmet since it definetely is NOT an ugly helmet at all.

Sorry, it is of course just a matter of personal taste :wink:

Furthermore since a lot of the higher officers in any one Legion didnt fight in the front ranks, helmets like these are not that often found, plust the fact that an officer's kit in general was highly expensive so not too many would have survived anyway.

M.VIB.M.

That's what I meant is the reason there have been (nearly) no Roman officer's helmets found.

When thinking of the highly decorated helmets for troopers I wonder which extraordinary pieces the officers would have worn... hock:
Perhaps the Autun-helmet actually gives us a glimpse of what was possible.

Greets,
