Etruscan Negau Helmet in the University of Pennsylvania Museum, November 2009
Bronze “Negau” Helmet
5th century BC
# MS 1609
Arms and armor were exported from Vulci and Arezzo to Europe. Etruscan-made “Negau” (named for the find spot in modern Slovenia) helmets were inspired by the armor of marauding Gauls. The helmets were eventually shipped north from Etruria by early “arms dealers” to the barbaric tribes of Gaul, Germany, and Scandinavia. This helmet has fine horse and lion protomes which probably helped anchor leather straps.
