History helmet: Apparently (judging from artistic & archaeological evidence) the most popular helmet during the Archaic & early Classical periods, the style gradually gave way to the more open Thracian helmet, Chalcidian helmet & the much simpler pilos type, which was less expensive to manufacture & did not obstruct the wearer's critical senses of vision & hearing as the Corinthian helmet did. Numerous examples of Corinthian helmets have been excavated, & they are frequently depicted on pottery. The Corinthian helmet was depicted on more sculpture than any other helmet; it seems the Greeks romantically associated it with glory & the past. The Romans also revered it, from copies of Greek originals to sculpture of their own. Based on the sparse pictorial evidence of the republican Roman army, in Italy the Corinthian helmet evolved into a jockey-cap style helmet called the Italo-Corinthian, Etrusco-Corinthian or Apulo-Corinthian helmet, with the characteristic nose guard & eye slits becoming mere decorations on its face[citation needed]. Given many Roman appropriations of ancient Greek ideas, this change was probably inspired by the over the forehead position common in Greek art. This helmet remained in use well into the 1st century AD. Helmet has an inner cap of felt or leather for great comfort & size adjustment. The Corinthian helmet can be a decorative element in your office, home, & spectacular gift for your loved ones or business partners. The Corinthian helmet may be worn & be part of your props.
