Medieval pikeman’s helmet Cabasset
Medieval pikemen’s helmet Cabasset
A similar helmet, the cabasset, was introduced around the same time in Italy. Like its
Spanish counterpart, it was worn by infantry in the pike and shot formations. The
stalk-like projection on the top resembled a pear, which is how it gained its name. It
was popular in 16th century England and was used during the Civil War. Several of
these helmets were taken to the New World by the Pilgrim fathers, and one of these
has been found on Jamestown Island.
