The Apulian Corinthian Helmet is believed to have been found in the Italian provinces, as suggested by the geographical locations of the historical finds. The helmet was worn over the head, pulling it in front from the back. The shape of the helmet suggests that it was used primarily for decorative purposes, as it did not provide any protection to the user’s head. The helmet is inspired by the Corinthian helmet but it has animal figurines engraved on the front.

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.
