We'll hopefully join you next year and I hope there will be a greek festival in 2007 too. The festival is a great event in my opinion.

Our website ist still under construction. There will be pics (we'll have a camp in may) and a english version soon. Please check back later.

I'd like to find an evidence of painted helmets for late Roman period as well! It looks so good...

Yes, I like it a lot! Is there a basis for this? Any depiction? Iconography? Literary source?

Well here you see Ralf's project on painted helmets.

Ralf says "...> my work bench with two iron Corinthians ($50 each) I am painting as a fun project. The blue and white one will have a trident on the front and waves along the skull crest. On the sides will be winged dolphins, from a shield design I found from a link on Mat Amp's site. The black one will have the sphinx of Chios on each side in white. I have an Argos bell and matched greaves on order from Manning Imperial, and should have them in a year..."
