    Hey, I'm doing a project on ancient Greek helmets. Does anyone have any info (or websites) on how helmets were made, who made them, etc??

    They were made from bronze, usually from a single sheet moulded to fit the Hoplite in question. They were made by greek smithies (the proper name I forget). Try a poke about on google, should turn something up.
