A Question About Triarii Helmets.

[Ludens]

now, if I might add a question... what's the point of that?

To stand out from the crowd. In Classical society, it was important to be seen performing your duty as a citizen, especially if you were an aspiring politician. And what duty is more important than defending your city?

may I ask? Is it the same helmet used by Pericles and Athena?

No, they would have worn true Corinthian helmets, not some imitation from an Italian backwater. The Apulo-Corinthian helmet was most likely inspired by the style of those statues, though.
