{{Quote|80|"Western researchers do not doubt the nomadic origins of conical helmets, which appeared not later then 900AD and changed the half egg-like or spherical helmets of the Merovingian and Carolingian period. In fact, conical helmets are known in the south and east of USSR according to findings and depictions from the last quarter of the first millenium AD17. In the light of this evidence, the conical helmet from Gnëzdovo, the oldest in Europe (C10th), is not necessary northern or western in origin. Possibly we are dealing with evidence of the nomad migration, a marker on the way to how conical helmets spread into Europe." |[KIRPICHNIKOV 1971]}}

This interpretation is a logical extrapolation from the Gjermundbu helm, which is actually of spangen construction and the conical helms depicted in Anglo-Saxon manuscripts.<bR>
