Some helmets-some info
#1
Something like 30 iron helmets were discovered in Novae. Don't have any other info (info is from researcher -Andrzej Biernacki -who gave the preliminary report in istambul).

As far as I understood they belong to Spangenhelme type.
Other is info on guilded silver sheet (once belonged to Berkasovo type helmet) sold to Vojvodjanski muzej in Novi Sad. The sheet was ironed and leveled to the form of paper by the seller (!?), and now it is in restoration laboratory with the aim of transofming it into its previous state. Don't have other info, have not seen it. Forgot to say location of find is Jarak in Srem district, something like 50 or 60 km to east from Berkasovo.

Is that all one embossed sheet or is it segments?

All I get with that link is a 2 page, text page. No photos or any details about helmets. Any chance of some pics of the gilded sheeting?

Great news otherwise!

Can anyone post a direct link?

Thanks
