This type of face mask was primarily used by the cavalry in ancient Rome during parades and equestrian competitions, known as hippika gymnasia. They served both protective and ceremonial purposes, often displaying idealized human features. Originally, these masks could be attached to a helmet with leather straps or hinges and bolts, and were either fixed in place or designed to be flipped up.
