Quote:sorry but it's definately Attic style. This style is a development of the phrygian cap design but it's attic. still the different types of hellenistic helmets were produced and used all over the med.I hate to disagree, but the books I have agree that it is defenitely a Thracian helmet.
The flared out lower edge and raised top are typical for the Thracian and Phrygian style. The Attic helmet has a rounded, relatively close fitting crown with visible hinges.
