Hallstadt Culture ArtifactsHelmet

According to Wikipedia, ”The Hallstadt culture was the predominant Western and Central European culture of Early Iron Age Europe from the 8th to 6th centuries BC…” Early Celtic people developed an economy based on salt mining in the West of Austria near modern Salzburg. Archaeological excavation has been conducted in the area since the mid-nineteenth century. The pieces modelled here, helmet, cuirass and axe head, date from the late Bronze Age, c. 650 to 475 BCE.
