Description Based loosely on a helmet from Trajan's column, I took away the floral patterns as it is generally agreed that they may have been invented by the artist.Β

Β Well why can't a hairy, hard-core warrior look a little pretty in his war-gear? (Perhaps he LIKED flowers, given they smell so much NICER than the average skull!).Β

Well I'll laugh if it is a joke, but if you are adding some amount of sincerity, Dacians used floral motifs in their designs, Sarmatians being closely related to Scythians probably didn't. This is at least until they find that exact helmet.

Β It was in fact my little joke; I just like the mental image of a Big Barbarian Warrior who still has time to stop and smell the flowers every so often!Β
