Am currently renewing my interest in kegel helms and have tracked 3 photos (are there more??)
the one with the side ripped /"rusted" away (what IS the term when bronze dissolves back to natural elements??)
The Argos panoply one
The one with the cute j crest holder.(labelled illyrohorse.jpg This third one has 2 staples on either side of the central crest holder and I am wondering which style of additional crests people best guess they may have taken
a) plate horns
b) two mote j crests with horsehair
c) Small crest boxes with horsehair pony tails/ crests, similar to classical period depictions of Athena
d)small shrek type plume/ horse hair holders similar to those worn by Alexander on the famed lion helmet.
Thanks in advance for ANY suggestions
