HBO\'s "Rome" to present more realistic look at the
Salve,Graham

I, too, have been wondering where this helmet came from.
Although I am a novice here, I looked in my copy of Connolly's
"Greece and Rome at War" and found it pictured there on
Trajan's Column.

I'm not sure why exactly everyone is so
sceptical of the depictions on Trajan's Column.
My study of art history shows me that though the poses are sometimes stylized,most artists do a pretty good job on details.
Would anyone deny Michaelangelo could render a person
faithfully? He was just a sculptor,too.

(Sorry,I digress.)
:oops: To me, it's a cool helmet,though.
