1715 Sallet

The sallet reached its pinnacle of popularity during the 1500s, evolving differently according to date and region. Although most display German influence, other examples show more subtle feathers of the Italian style. This is an example of an early 16^th  century design, while in its later use the sallet developed a long flared tail that extended over the back of the wearer's neck.  The open face sallet became popular among archers and spearmen in the early 16^th century.  These less obstructive helmets provided much better visibility on the battlefield than their predecessors that covered most of the face with a visor or left only slits as visibility.

1736 PigFace Bascinet

The Barbuta is a design with a rich history.  It was developed in Italy, originating from the Bascinet, which itself had evolved from a steel skull cap worn under the great helm.  During combat most soldiers removed the great helm as to not hinder their agility and visibility. These soldiers eventually discarding it completely for the simpler and more manageable Bascinet.  The Barbuta developed from the Bascinet, with a design that hearkens back to the Corinthian helmets worn in the Greek empire.  This is believed to have been caused by a renewed interest in classical history and literature.
