One look at the Premium Gladiator Arena Helmet and it is easy to tell there was blood shed. This helmet screams of brutality and is a sound representation of medieval warfare. Although it was the Etruscans that originally established the gladiatorial games, they were made popular by the Romans, as many other things were. Gladiators were handpicked from sentenced criminals, slaves and prisoners of war; they were basically disposable. The average gladiator never lived longer than a year, but if they were able to survive for three entire years, there was the opportunity to win their freedom.

Battles varied greatly; some were man on man, while others were group battles. There were even occasions a man would have to battle a wild animal to stay alive. Our Premium Gladiator Arena Helmet has been hand-forged from 18-gauge steel and generously covered with intimidating spikes. It is durable and fully wearable for reenactment and media productions.
