Hi everyone!
I really need some sources on whether romans used face masks,or full-face guards on helmets in the late roman period,for infantryman,or not.I know cavalry used them,but i was thinking about:could infantryman wear those type of helmets?Looking forward to any answer,thank you very much.
I believe 7 masks were found in the imperial palace in Constantinople.
But this is a lot later than the widow most people would term Late Roman, although they were the late Empire.
Robert. I don't see any response to my post from 2 months ago,
I see a quote afterwards from a previous post where you had mentioned Turkish masks, but the masks I am referring to were discussed as being given to certain elements of the Guard, so Byzantine, not Turkish.
