The Roman helmet type Niederbieber (also Rainau-Buch/Niederbieber ) was a protective weapon of legions and auxiliary troops. Name derives from the locality was of n 260. Chr. Destroyed fort Niederbieber the Upper Germanic Limes. Helmets of this type are considered as the latest form of the typical kaiser time-Gallic helmet type Weisenau which is palpable from the late Republican period in the find material. The type Niederbieber was in the late 2nd and 3rd centuries in use. During the late antiquity then found completely new helmet forms the entrance to the Roman military system.
Description
Helmets type Niederbieber consist of sheet bronze and possess a relatively flat piece with a extremely pulled down nape. The subsequent wide neck guard is bent projecting flat and back down. On the dome there is a manufactured from two metal sheets cross-strap, which makes as a reinforcing protection of the helmet slide one fell swoop from above. The temple, which extends over the apex line starts at the forehead and ends in the neck area. He is attached to the front and rear ends, each with a large cone-shaped bronze rivets. Another smaller ridge runs from the right to the left side of the helmet and crossed at the apex of the other comb. The ends of the comb are soldered to the cap. The ear region is widely excised and the edges are roundish blunted, to protect the ears from injury. On the right and left wide cheek guards are mounted with the help of hinges. To fasten the helmet on the wearer's head, a leather strap was pushed by fastening rings under the neck guard and then guided forward crosswise through the eyelets at the bottom of the cheek, and finally tied. This three-point hitch was a typical feature of all Weisenau helmets and prevented that the helmet could be slippage or moved.
This type of helmet is considered quite rare find object and is scientifically assessed differently. During the Roman weapons experts H. Russell Robinson understood the Niederbieber as a rider helmet, looked at him Marcus Junkelmann as infantry helmet. Today however, most believed that the Niederbieber helmet also found the use of both cavalry in the infantry as. In addition to models from Rainau-Buch and also the type Niedermörmter Niederbieber belongs to the late models of Weisenau. The heavily armored helmets type Niederbieber with its strongly pronounced, in the chin area overlapping cheek emerged at the end of the 2nd century  and were up to the introduction of the new late antique helmet shapes from the Spangenhelmen type Der-el-Medineh about 270 n. Chr. in the find material appeared worn.
