Quote:Although the helmets in question are not from a documented Roman context, Junkelmann states that at least one helmet with a Roman inscription also was found with an iron ring around the knob.

I am not at all an expert in Italian helmets but this type of helmet adornment seems to me to be different from the transverse feather crests found on other Italian helmets.

Good enough for me.

Not me. One man with a helmet taken from a Samnite, and personalised, doth not a Roman fashion make :wink:
