Thank you also Matthew for your information of the ancient account of the 2 soldiers getting water , is this the only known reference of a helmet liner being mentioned?
I had cut up some wool felt into pie sections and hide glued them into the inside of the helmet and made some linen pouches for the cheek guards...
Also was the use of cotton a "new world" innovation or was cotton harvested in the ancient world and did the plant exist there??
