The Corinthian helmet got its name from the place of excavation in Corinth. The original helmet was found in bronze. The earlier forms of the helmet were of a more open form; it did not cover the entire head of the user. The Greek hoplites used to pull back their helmets to rest on their foreheads for comfort during the rest/stroll hours. The shape of the helmet is more ovoid than hemispherical. The slits for the eyes and the rest of the face are proportional, they give ample space for vision and ventilation.

The VI Century Illyrian Helmet is a simple and impressive piece of hoplite reenactment gear. Originally constructed in the Greek workshops, but was later used across the Mediterranean. The helmet artefact was found in the Adriatic region and therefore, it was named after Illyria. The construction of the helmet has fixed and rigid cheek guards and a projected neck protector. The central ridges are hand-embossed to fit a crest (if needed). Some historians and scholars also claim that this design is an inspiration from Sarajevo’s style of helmets.
