Historical Artifacts

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

I've heard of wooden armor from further north up the coast. I've got a memory of seeing an actual wooden helmet somewhere too, very similar to this with the narrow slit visor. I'm a bit curious as to whether it's pre or post contact.
