Item Specs

The first recorded account of a gladiatorial battle appears in 264 BCE during the First Punic Wars. This battle was held to honor the recently deceased Brutas Preta. Prisoners of war were forced to fight against each other as a payment to the dead. This tradition quickly took hold among the Roman Elite as a funeral custom.

As the custom grew in popularity amphitheaters were constructed to house the bloody competition. In 80 AD the greatest amphitheater the world would ever see was unveiled. This massive stone structure was called the Colosseum. Despite popular belief it was preferable for gladiators to not fight to the death. These men were slaves, but were also quit valuable due to their years of training. Most gladiators were instructed to only inflict minor wounds to each other, and as a result lived long successful lives.

Features

The helmet has been constructed from 18 Gauge Polished Steel.
The crest of the helmet has been welded to the top of the helm.

He loved it!	January 5, 2012
Reviewer: Trisha from Mount Ida, AR United States

I have 3 grandsons and a son that is 26. I had come across swordnarmory.com looking for a sword for 2 of my grandsons. Then I saw the helmets and I knew they would love them. So I bought 2 helmets. Then I got to thinking about my third grandson and realized he would love one too. So I bought it. Then I began to laugh as I realized my 26 year old son would probably love the gladiator helmet, or at least get a big laugh out of it. I got it and he did laugh out loud... along with the rest of the family around the Christmas tree. And not only did he LOVE it, but every male in the house, no matter the age lusted after these great helmets. My grandsons were thrilled beyond measure. I'll be getting them a sword to match on their birthdays. These were the highlight gifts of the whole day. My son said, because I'm terrible at choosing gifts...Mom, you finally got it right. Boys never really grow up.

Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Seattle, WA United States

Was hoping that this helmet would be more comfortable to wear. It's not. Looks good on the shelf though.
