Based on the Chalkidian helmet – which had evolved from the Corinthian – the Attic helmed was also used in the Greek states in southern Italy. Therefore it was very popular among the Roman officers.

Goddess Athena, the so-called Pallas Athena, was the Patroness of Scholars, Philosophers, Crafts Workers and Soldiers. She was the daughter of Zeus and Titaness Metis. Never married, forever and avowed virgin. Her symbols are the owl and the olive Branch. She was wise, truthful, knowledgeable and pensive, yet ruthless in battle and to those who defied her.
