Celtic Senones warriors, 4th century BC

Here we have two Senones from northern Italy, from the Marche region, belonging to the social elite of their tribe, a fact evidenced by the fact that they both wear a helmet of the Montefortine type, unlike normal warriors who fought without such protection. The warrior on the right, a Senon chief, has a helmet decorated with a multiple crest support and is also protected by a Celtic shield with an umbo of iron fins. His companion carries another type of undecorated Montefortine helmet, a kind of banner depicting a wild boar, and is armed with a typical Celtic longsword.
