Helmets

Helmets are a piece of armor that protects the head. Individual helmets differed in shape depending on the purpose for which they were used (combat helmets, gladiator helmets, tournament helmets, ceremonial or military helmets) as well as on the material of which they were made.

In the Early Middle Ages, a number of basic helmet types were used in various modifications. Often helmets of different shapes and designs might have co-existed - more modern and technologically more advanced solutions alongside older ones that were simpler and cheaper in terms of their manufacture. This all depended on the warrior’s status and wealth.
