Lot 69 | Pseudochalkidischer Bronzehelm, nördlicher Schwarzmeerraum, 3. - 2. Jhdt. v. Chr.
Pseudochalkidischer Bronzehelm, nördlicher Schwarzmeerraum, 3. - 2. Jhdt. v. Chr.
Sarmatenzeitlicher Helm aus getriebenem Bronzeblech mit von chalkidischen Helmen inspirierten Dekorelementen. Der Länge nach zweiteilig gearbeitete Kalotte, entlang der überlappenden Kanten mit 15 Nieten verbunden. Die Unterkante der Kalotte nach außen in einen ca. 3 mm breiten Randwulst umgebördelt. Ca. 3,5 cm oberhalb der Randwulst hinten und seitlich eine parallel dazu verlaufende Wulst in der Wandung von der Innenseite aus herausgetrieben. Diese biegt oberhalb der Stirn im Winkel von ca. 45 Grad nach oben ab und bildet so einen "Giebel", ähnlich wie bei chalkidischen Helmen. Von der Giebelspitze aus laufen die Wülste entlang der überlappenden Kanten längs über den Scheitel und treffen auf dem Hinterhaupt im rechten Winkel auf die Wulst in der Wandung.
Auf der Innenseite am Rand seitlich links und rechts zwei umgebogene Blechbänder mit je zwei Nieten befestigt, deren unteres Ende die mittlere Buchse eines Scharniers zur Anbringung von beweglichen Wangenklappen bildet. Die Wangenklappen nicht erhalten. Vor und hinter den Nietlöchern für die Buchsen je zwei weitere Durchbohrungen, wohl für die Befestigung eines Helmfutters. Im Inneren des Helms partiell im Oxyd organische Reste erhalten, die wohl Überreste eines solchen Helmfutters darstellen.
Auf der linken Seite von innen her restauratorisch stabilisierte Risse im unteren Teil der Wandung bis etwas oberhalb der Wulst in der Wandung. Zwei kleinere Löcher in der Kalotte auf beiden Seiten (Maße ca. 1 x 2 cm) verschlossen. Sonst weitestgehend vollständig erhaltene Originalsubstanz (über 95 %). Schöne grüne, leicht fleckige, partiell glänzende Patina. Länge an der Unterkante 20 cm, Breite 18,3 cm. Höhe ca. 17 cm.
Provenienz: Aus Schweizer Sammlung G. B., aufbewahrt in Südwestdeutschland. Aus spanischem Besitz erworben (spanische Exportpapiere liegen vor).
A pseudo-Chalcidian bronze helmet, northern Black Sea area, 3rd - 2nd century B.C.
A pseudo-Chalcidian bronze helmet, northern Black Sea area, 3rd - 2nd century B.C.
Sarmatian helmet made of chased bronze sheet with decorative elements inspired by Chalcidian helmets. The calotte is made in two parts. Along its length, joined along the overlapping edges with 15 rivets. The lower edge of the calotte flanged outwards in an approx. 3 mm wide bead. Approx. 3.5 cm above the rim bead at the back and laterally a second bead running parallel to the rim bead driven out in the wall from the inside. This bends upwards above the forehead at an angle of about 45 degrees, forming a "gable" similar to that of Chalcidian helmets. From the top of the gable, the beads run along the overlapping edges longitudinally across the crown and meet the bead in the wall at right angles on the back of the head.
On the inside of the rim laterally on the left and right two bent sheet metal bands, each fastened with two rivets, the lower end of which forms the central socket of a hinge for attaching movable cheek guards. The cheek guards are not preserved. Two additional holes in front of and behind the rivet holes for the bushings, probably for attaching a helmet liner. Inside the helmet, organic remains partially preserved in the oxide, which probably represent the remains of such a helmet lining.
On the left side, cracks stabilised by restoration from the inside in the lower part of the wall to slightly above the bead in the wall. Two smaller holes in the calotte closed on both sides (approx. 1 x 2 cm). Otherwise largely completely preserved original substance (over 95 %). Beautiful green, slightly spotty, partially shiny patina. Length at the lower edge 20 cm, width 18.3 cm. Height approx. 17 cm.
Provenance: From the Swiss collection G. B., kept in Southwest Germany, acquired from Spanish possession (Spanish export papers available).
