Greek Bronze Illyrian Helmet, Archaic Period
About the Item
Greek bronze Illyrian Helmet
Archaic period, circa 500-500 BC.
Hammered from sheet-bronze, of domed form, with two parallel ribs to the bowl, a straight visor, two raised parallel ridges running front to back across the crown, and a narrow flange to the rear.
The term 'Illyrian' describes a style of bronze helmet, which in its later variations covered the entire head and neck, and was open-faced in all of its subsequent forms. Its earliest styles were first developed in ancient Greece, specifically in the Peloponnese, during the 8th-7th centuries BC (700–640 BC). The helmet was misleadingly named as an "Illyrian" type due to a large number of early finds coming from Illyria.

- Okitenugui Kabuto Samurai Helmet Shaped as a Head Towel Saika, Early Edo PeriodLocated in Milano, ITOkitenugui kabuto Samurai helmet shaped as a head towel Saika, early Edo period, 17th century The Haruta armorers who moved to Kii province in the early 17th century, took the name from the village where they worked, Saika, near Wakayama, possibly on request of the local daimyo, Asano Yukinaga, a great armour amateur. Specialised in the construction of plate helmets, they produced mainly two typologies of kabuto: one with six plates covered with a chrysanthemum-shaped plate on top and one shaped as a “head towel”, called okitenugui. The latter type of kabuto employs very heavy plates crafted in a curved manner and was improved in order to make it resistant to firearms. This okitenugui kabuto features some distinctive decorations of the Haruta school, including the application of cut-out iron elements, including eyebrows, washers and lozenge-shaped decorations on the sides. The ring on the top, however, is a rare feature and could be used to hold a small war flag.Category
