Context:
This is a rare example of a type of helmet used from about 1350 to 1480. Its conical shape deflected glancing blows to the head. Italian chronicles refer to profes-sional men-at-arms as barbuti. The word derives from the Italian barba, or beard, a reference to the hood of mail (camail) often attached to these early helmets. The row of small holes along the face opening and neck were for the attachment of the camail and the lining.
