Roman helmets: Imperial Gallic/Italic and Ridge - comparisons and sources
#8
And, just to conclude, even after Sextus Africanus, Roman army were able to defeat the Sassanians, with Gordian III that was able to take back practically all the Sassian conquests before dying.

Coming back to the helmet, it seems to have been found in Doura Eurpos, in the famous siege, so around 256 probably it was used by Sassians. Do we have any source that it was the same helmet used also by the Parthians?

For what concerns Rome, we know the Richborough helmet, around 280's. I am curios to know if there are others.
