Adrian, maybe you can do a swap of photos of your reconstruction, maybe for some high quality views of a certain other helmet from Krefeld and the parts diagram :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

Oh, by the way, the late Roman Deurne helmet was -to my mind- lacking its RIGHT cheekpiece when it was deposited as an offering in a shallow pool. Another one for the statistics... :wink:

which means all right cheek pieces found belong to helmets that were offered, and all brows on the helmets represent horns of a bull.........
