Iron Age Warrior's Grave


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Today after visiting my local docks i went home and was shown an article in my local newspaper, (which is now in my archaelogical news paper clippings book) It explains of an iron age warriors Monteforino helmet buried with him. These have only ever been found on the continent.

 

Anyway i wont spoil to much so heres the site to read on it.

Thanks for the link Chris! This does sound fascinating, and it goes to show that some types of equipment like the Montefortino helmet were still in use until the mid-first century, around the time that most people believe that the switch to Imperial Gallic helmets were made. I only wish they had displayed some photographs of the find, as it does sound very interesting.
