Greek Helmets. with or without crests.... ??
#3
This question seems to come up quite often.
Yes I seem to recall there are examples of Greek helmets with what could be
fittings for attaching crests. Some Illerians seems to have the ridge and holes to support this.

An intersting link here-

Finding a corinthian though seems like searching for hens teeth...
this one looks like a nail hole for display in a temple.
