Kiev museums Scythian and Sarmatian artefacts
#2
Very nice collection of photographs!

Any information on this particular helmet?

I'm supposing that it is Sarmatian, considering the swords and in particular the ring pommel daggers in the photos around it. Almost looks like a Dacian helmet that was posted on the boards some time back, not to mention a descendant of the Greek Chalcidian type. Dates available?

There appear to be some later weapons and artefacts mixed in as well. The one sword appears to be Viking, while another seems to be a yatagan.
