very fine reconstruction of a late medieval pot helmet also known as a bucket helmet or barrel helmet, as worn in the 14th century. The so-called Great Helm (also called a great helmet or great heaume) was often worn over a smaller, lighter helmet (for example, a cervelliere or secret helmet) and was widespread throughout Central Europe during the Middle Ages. Numerous historical illustrations, miniatures and finds from Germany, Flanders, England, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, etc. they testify to the popularity of this particular type of helmet at the time. These helmets arose during the Crusades at the end of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century. and were commonly worn by knights well into the 14th century.
