The closed Greek helmets must have been both a good protection and a curse, when fighting in a place where it was very hot and the sun was blasting down – fighting from morning till evening – would the worrier not get a heat stroke?
I think it would not only be the heat from the sun, which could ‘kill’ the warrior, but also all the energy he used during the fight, creating even more heat. Would a helmet made of plates kept together with rings not give, maybe a bit less protection, but still better ventilation, and therefore, a worrier who would last longer? How much heat can the human brain take, for a longer period, and still work logically? |
