Ancient Greek Helmet Found in Stone Burial Chamber in Croatia

Dec 8, 2020

A very rare bronze Greek-Illyrian war helmet, used in Greece during the time of the Greco-Persian Wars, has just been discovered in a rock-cut tomb in Dalmatia, Croatia.

The form of the iconic open-faced helmet, which archaeologists consider an especially rare find, originated in the Peloponnese during the 8th and 7th centuries BC.

Doesn't look Greek, it looks like an Illyrian helmet. Which makes sense considering it was found in Croatia.
