Mail does not offer less protection than segmentata! Segmentata is vulnerable to upward thrusts. We don't even know if it was a widespread as depicted on Trajan's Column, as it's absent from the Tropaeum Traiani.
Where is this technical explanation for the quality of the helmets? All I'm seeing is a relative soft argument...
If the single piece helmet was superior to the segmented version, why was it that reinforcing crossbars added to Gallic/Italic helmets?
