The Historical Troy Helmet
A Trojan helmet or Troy helmet originates from Ancient Greece, in the famous city of Troy. It was mostly preferred by the Greek military soldiers from the sixth until the eighth century.
The soldiers also utilized this helmet during the famous Trojan war, which took place during the Bronze Age.
Generally, the ancient Troy helmet was bronze, but other constructed helmets were black, silver, or brass.
The Troy helmet’s design was impressive, and it allowed individuals to determine a warrior’s rank. It was easier for them to determine other warriors with the plume when the battlefields were full of dust clouds.
Not only that, but the plume made the wearer appear taller, which effectively intimidated opponents. Usually, the plume was red, orange, or black.
With the numerous Greek-themed films, medieval helmets like our Troy helmet have become popular today. Fans of history and medieval pieces seek replicas of these headgears to add to their collection.
