Antique tinned steel helmet replica (Hoplomachus gladiators)
This replica follows an original from Pompeii (79 a.d.)
A hoplomachus was a type of gladiator in ancient Rome, armed to resemble a Greek hoplite (soldier with heavy armor and helmet, a small, round, concave shield, a spear and a sword). The hoplomachus would wear a bronze helmet, a manica on his right arm, loincloth (subligaculum), heavy padding on his legs, and a pair of high greaves reaching to mid-thigh.
Hoplomachus and Thraex, were usually pitted against the murmillo, armed like a legionary, mimicking the opposition between Roman soldiers and their various enemies.
Our replica is hand-chased from 1,6 mm tinned steel. It has no fixed liner.
