Don't have my books at hand to look what was found in Pompeii, but hopefully will be able to look that up tomorrow. Anyway about the opening, as far as I remember (I looked into that and made detail pictures some months ago), the 'mask' is made out of 2 pieces with hinges just like on military helmets on the sides. There is also a hinge with removable pin to lock the eye-visors in place (on the top of them). On the bottom they are slided into a slot. Hope this helps. Will try to dig up detail pictures of one of the pompeii helmets I did to be able to study these details at home. But as they're still on my old PC, which I haven't totally recovered, that may take some time.
Ok thanks for that Ill await your reply
