One similar was found in Bulgaria at Bryastovets. (some samples are on Trajan column too)
But I'm not sure with historical accuracy of Deepeeka helmet.

Is this the Bryastovets helmet?
It's in the Sofia Museum. ![[Image: Archershelmetsmall.jpg]](http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/peronis/Archershelmetsmall.jpg) Regards,

Yes, that's it. Embossed with figures of gods, Trajan column shows less decorated types.

You get very similar, low crowned spangs cropping up in western Siberian and Turkic contexts of the 6th century minus the cheek guards. Obviously a style which was very popular in eastern Europe as well as central Asia and beyond.

The question is, what did Deepeeka base theirs on?
Personally I think that the Deepeeka helmet is too tall. Regards,

I have heard it is very heavy...
