| Abstract: | The chalcidic helmet with ram’s protome in the Saint Louis Art Museum comes from a tomb in Metaponto. The grave assemblage has been reconstructed and displays the helmet wearer as a remarkable warrior, with the most complete panoply preserved in the Archaic Greek world. The work presents the panoply, discusses why this warrior has not been reconstructed until now, and proposes a reading of the role of this figure in Magna Grecia of the period following the destruction of Sibaris. |
