Summary

Description
English: Scythian soldier, Kalchayan

"Another helmet that may have a Hellenic (or part-Hellenic) inspiration is the earlier first century BCE helmet of the Khalchayan sculptures of Greco-Bactria depicting a helmeted Saka warrior (Fig. 5).4 The Khalchayan helmet features a distinct “egg shape” with a forward-protruding visor and what appears to be leather rims on the sides of the helmet reaching the neck."
