Quote:Back to the subject of the original post.. Marcos, what proof do you have that these pieces are indeed from the same helmet? I have been informed that this 'lot' was on ebay some time ago as unrestored fragments.
well , I can ask to the owner, whick is a friend of the discoverer , to have detailed informations .
Until now i know that the helmet , the lorica hamata fragments , and the horse fitting were found all togheter in the some place.
Beside I have compared all the pieces of the helmet and indeed they come from the some item; some tickness, some oxidation , some kind of iron, and in some portion they seem correpond in the edge, although not well due the serious oxidation.
Some other images of other findings
