The Quest for the Crosby Garrett Helmet
In a stunning twist of fate, a metal detectorist in Cumbria, England, unearthed the early 2nd or 3rd century AD Crosby Garrett Helmet. Carefully folded into 67 pieces, it lay hidden in a pit amidst the remains of a Romano-British settlement.

After undergoing 240 hours of meticulous restoration, the Crosby Garrett Helmet, thought to have adorned celebratory ceremonies rather than battlefields, found a new home with a private collector. Its intricate repairs hint at a past wrapped in ceremony and history.
