Anotations

Scope note:

Lightweight infantryman's helmet, characterized by an almond-shaped bowl, a short brim, with a distinctive turned-back point at the apex. They are more similar to "cabassets" than "morions." However, they were called "Spanish morions," referring to their being preferred by Spanish troops, although usually manufactured in Italy.
