Légende
Bronze helmet Greek / around 460 BC / south-central Greece. The city-states of Greece were often either united against a common enemy or at war with each other. By the fifth century BC / a key element in warfare were the groups of hoplites / heavily-armed soldiers / whose name derived from the hopla or round shield. Each city-state was defended by its own citizens and the hoplites were usually the richer men / as equipment was expensive.
