Jarak helmet | Berkasovo Type Roman Helmet

$350.00

The Jarak helmet belongs to the family of Berkasovo-type helmets due to its similarities in the overall construction details and the decorations. As per relevant scholarly references, the helmet was found in a clay pot. A farmer found the clay pot while plowing his lands in the province of Srem, Serbia. The helmet was later purchased by the Vojvodjanski Museum, Novi sad, Serbia. The Jarak helmet is believed to have been used during the 4th century AD by one of the officers of the Licinius Army. The actual ownership of the helmet is uncertain as the place of excavation was a hotbed of conflicts in history. It is categorized as a Roman helmet due to its similarities to the Berkosovo-type helmets. The original find of the helmet has silver rivets and traces of silver gilding on the helmet bowl. Interestingly, there are no traces of any precious stones attached to the helmet.

Description

Some specifications of the product

Jarak helmet is a ridged helmet made of two layers of metal; a steel core and a decorative brass overlay. The complete composition of the Jarak helmet i.e. the bowl, the cheeks, and the neck guard are made of 1mm thick steel and brass layers welded together. The outer brass layer has a historically accurate decorative embossed pattern. One of the main elements of this helmet, like the other Berkasovo-type helmets, is the tear-drop embossing. Our reproduction of the museum replica uses brass decorations only; unlike the original composition which has silver bulb-head rivets and shows possible traces of silver gilding.

We also make replicas of the Berkasovo-II Helmet.
