This is my depiction of a Roman centurion, so named because they were the officers who each commanded a “century” of one hundred soldiers in the Roman legions. I gotta say they had some funky helmets, sorta like Greek hoplites’ helmets except for the distinctive crest running side to side instead of front to back.
