Quote:Well you have to know that AD gladiators don't hit eachother with the swords on the helmet of intention, but they try to climb over the defense and the shield of the adversary lowering from the tall one the hits of sica.
And the wide brim of gladiatorial helmets are used by the gladiators themselves to protect the hits of sica that arrive from the tall one, as you can see very well in these photos.
I can say the same after 10+ years of "non experimental not archeology".
The wide brim is my main amour for my shoulders.
