8th-11th century AD. A Norman or Viking period four-plate iron helmet, skilfully made to accommodate the curvature of the human head, and with a point at the apex; contoured so that the top and bottom plates overlap, with iron rivets passing through this overlap to secure them in position; the rivets worked flat into the surface of the helmet, almost invisible from the outside but detectable on the inner surface; the lower rim furnished with an additional series of rivets, probably to accommodate a lining; two attachment holes at the base of either side, where the cheek-plates were originally attached; the plate-junction at the apex with hole, allowing a plume or horsehair streamer to be inserted, or a conical covering plate to be attached; mounted on a custom-made display stand.See Curtis, H.
