This is a replica of a type of helmet used by gladiators in the
Roman Empire.
This Gladiator Helmet is constructed of sturdy 18 gauge mild
carbon steel. It will never rust and does not need to be oiled.
This replica is very like the helmet worn by Maximus in the
Gladiator film.
The Romans believed when an important man died his spirit needed
a blood sacrifice to survive in the after life. Gladiators were
typically picked from prisoners of war, slaves, and sentenced
criminals. There were also occasional volunteers. They were
trained in special gladiator schools.
Specifications:
- This gladiator helmet weighs over 4 pounds.
- It is approximately 9 inches ear to ear.
- The design allows for maximum air flow.
Due to the handmade nature of this item, no two examples are
alike. It's truly a unique, collectible piece.
You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase this Gladiator
Helmet.
