This Celtic/Gallic helmet was inspired by surviving examples, of which the most prominent may be the Port bei Nidau iron helmet recovered largely intact from the River Thielle at Port (near Nidau, Switzerland) in the late 19th century. The original artifact, dating from the 1st century c. BC, is classified as a helmet from the late La Tène period (also known as La Tène III or La Tène D). The Port Type rudder has its roots in eastern Gaul. Typical features were the vaulted bowl, the protruding riveted neck guard, the raised eyebrows and cheekbones. Although this helmet is undoubtedly Celtic in origin and was worn by the Gauls, it is believed to have also been worn in the Roman ranks during Caesar's Gallic Wars (58-50 BC). This particular shape was ultimately adopted by the Romans, eventually evolving into the so-called Imperial Gallic Weisenau, the classic Roman legionary helmet as we know it.
