Gentlemen, let's not turn this very exciting thread too heated!
Please correct me if I am wrong: Dioskouri has produced what could be the most authentic copies of corinthian style helmets yet made on this planet. Anyway Christian shows that the corinthian style helmets were generally lighter than the helmets made by Dioskouri, based on the evidence from Olympia (for example). I think Christian doesn't want to take anything away from Dioskouri's effort, just showing how they might still differ from the original helmets. Am I correct?
