Battle of Marathon Helmets

Happy Marathon Day friends in Hopkinton and Boston!


Here are the helmets worn by the leaders of the Greek and Persian military leaders at the Battle of Marathon where it all began!  After the Persians were defeated these helmets were brought to the Olympia to honor Zeus for the Athenians victory
