Three helmets of Roman fabrication and origin are described; they were found at sites in Central Greece and today arc in the BronzeCollection of the National Archaeological Museum. Two came from Kopaida (nos. 1 and 2, f i g s. 1-3), and the third (no. 3, f i g s.4-5) probably from a shipwreck. There is also mention of a fourth one (f i g. 6) probably from Locris, which was noticed in an Athensantique shop. They all belong to the same type o f helmet (Monlefortino Type), similar to the one found in Thesprotia and recently published by A.
