Stephanos--First, thanks for the AWESOME tour of the Benaki and your strong support at the meeting.
May I say to the rest of you that the hospitality of Greek reenactors (my cross section with Giannis and Stephanos) is superb?
It is.
Anyway, Stephanos, Die Angriffswaffen Aus Olympia (WdG 2001) has 20 iron sarauters and some fragments. Some have bronze rings, and some don't. All are from the sanctuary at Olympia (I don't read German, so if I got this wrong, I need to be corrected!) and seem to be 525-450 in time period.
In fact, my war spear that Joe Piela is building (right now, I think!) will have an iron sarauter with a bronze ring like Peter mentioned above.
