Smooth Conqueror Helmet

The Knights of Castile of the sixteenth century wore a type of helmet known as morrión, somewhat conical and with an almost sharp crest. It had a wide, raised and rolled flap, ending at one point in front and back, and the top or top was curved.
Although the death was used particularly by infantry or pedestrians, notable knights and characters did not stop wearing it because they were lighter than the helmet and left their faces uncovered to be able to breathe more easily.
A popular associate only to the Spanish thirds of the Golden Age and to the conquerors of America, morion was used in most European countries in the 16th and 17th centuries.
The dying was a helmet in the shape of a half almond to make the blows slip.
In the Spanish thirds, he was part of the defensive team of pikemen and arcabuceros.
It is currently used by the Vatican Swiss Guard.
