Typical features were the domed (later conical) crown and the flaring, downward sloping brim with projecting front section and folds at the sides. This particular shape made the helm ideal for mounted troops, as it provided adequate neck, face and lateral protection without impairing the hoplites' vision and hearing. Although mainly used by the Greeks and Macedonians during the Classical Antiquity and the Hellenistic period, evidence shows that this helmet type also saw service among the Roman cavalry in the Republican period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Boeotian helmet offered here is a one-piece brass construction (1.2 mm \/ 18 gauge).
