Gladiator Helmet On Show In Melbourne


A 2,000 year old gladiator helmet will be the center piece of a Pompeii exhibit in Melbourne, Australia. The exhibition, which is called 'A Day In Pompeii', will start on June 26. The helmet, made of bronze, belonged to a Murmillo gladiator, which was also the most heavily armed of gladiators. The show also includes 250 other pieces from Pompeii.
