The trooper helmet is a Celtic abomination? More like a Museum Replicas piece of garbage! :grin:

It was in context/juxtaposition in the photo. The magazine put the word "Celt" with the trooper helm throughout.

Did they show a Celt wearing one? What was the magazine? Whatever it is, pretty off historically to show a trooper, even more to call it "Celtic".

It was in Barnes & Noble, but I will have to go back to get the title. Something about how ancient things worked or such.

Still, pretty ridiculous to show a trooper helmet. That thing is probably the most infamous object in the Roman reenactment world. If they wanted to portray a Celtic helmet, why not a port style? A trooper is the last thing I would want to put as a Celtic helmet. They are just Windlass junk, not even ancient! I cannot believe some of these people... I was just on Pinterest, and there was a thousand people claiming the trooper was " accurate ". I referred them all to the Legio XX website to look at some real helmets.
