Corinthian Helmet of the Early Third Type 3rd quarter of the 6th century BC
The skull is set-off distinctly from the wall of the helmet. The pair of stylised eyebrows above the eye cut-outs converge above the nose. The raised rim which frames the brows continues downwards to form a central ridge on the lance-shaped nose-guard. small, closely spaced drill holes, some still with the remains of decorative rivets, adorn the edge cut-outs. The neck-guard curves outwards and is set off from the cheek-pieces. H. 21 cm.

[British Museum, 3rd floor feline collection]
(Thanks @dysfunctionalkitty for bringing this cultural addition to my attention.)
