<br>
This picture was found on a site with pictures of Roman equipment and it lists it as a 5th century and on helmet. I have seen these types of helms often, but usually they are attributed to germanic tribes (Ostrogoth is one I see very often in realtion to this type of spangenhelm), but is there any evidence of their useage in the late Roman Empire? If not, what about Britain?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any words of wisdom!<br>
