Imperial Roman Soldier (Sumner new book)

[Matthew Amt]

I am still wondering why noone had responded to my post about the Gallic D helmet. I am just trying to find out why this helmet is overlooked.

Well, the impression I got was that Sumner and D'Amato were not attempting to redo all the work done by Robinson and other authors, but to bring in a lot of new material. Since that Gallic D was already shown in a couple books, so probably it wasn't seen as essential material. Though I agree with you that a more detailed analysis of it should be more widely available!

Actually, we'd all probably be amazed at how much does NOT get mentioned by most books, these days...
