@Alexandermb Out of curiosity, how is the civil center building going?

The model is relatively fast to do, the problem and the reason i've was stopped is the concrete wall texture. Thought the latest knowledge i've acquired in the scutum material would help me getting a proper wattle and dab texture.

Ok, thanks for answering,  i will look for reference for concrete wall texture to help.

And a Germanic helmet, badly recorded but dated to the 1st century AD:

Actually, it could be a faked medieval helmet to look like an ancient one, with the purpose to higher the price:image.thumb.png.5695e7def9875c45e1f0cf58def5c510.png

Sad. So any helmet by their own?

Before the migration period, nope.

Excepted the weird wooden helmets from Lolland.

Probably they would have used first Celtic helmets (especially Coolus-Mannheim type and Port type) then Roman helmets type. There is also a Negau type with a Germanic inscription, although it is a bit far from their homeland.

Very sad. This is how the early germans dressed.

The closest thing we have is that they wore celtic helmets.

When the Celts were still independent at least yes. After that, the Celtic helmets definitely vanishes everywhere, even in the East.

Probably that the best ways to acquire helmets at this time were receiving gifts and mercenary/auxiliary experience.

This is probably why we found roman helmets as well deep in the North
