Huťka 2016, Sallet helmets in Slovakia, AMM XII: 121-134 At the end of the 15th c., a specific type of armour was widespread in Europe, that modern science commonly referred to as Gothic. It was characterised by imitating the civil fashion and use of slender, vertical lines and narrow profile. It originated probably in Southern Germany. A commonly associated helmet, was the sallet, the subject of this article. The main aim of this paper is a survey of its spread in Slovakia. There are comparatively few sources for our research, however both quantitatively and qualitatively they are much more numerous than in earlier periods. We will focus on museum collections, iconographic sources, mainly effigies and panel paintings from various places in Slovakia, such as Banská Bystrica or Spišská Kapitula. We will also compare the acquired knowledge to the sallets preserved elsewhere in Europe.

Embleton (2007). 3 In the Kingdom of Bohemia, the first mention of sallet was discovered in 1441 in the testament of Prokop Paly from Zderaz in Nove Město (Wagner, Drobná, Durdík 1956, 63). 122 Miroslav Huťka Fig. 1.

Literature from the Middle Ages (or “Medieval,” i.e., the 5th through 15th centuries) was full of stories featuring knights—like those of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, or the popular tale of Saint George who slayed a dragon to rescue a princess.

Those suits, along with romantic ideas and images of knights, developed over time. The image on the left, painted in the mid 1300s, shows Saint George the dragon slayer wearing only some pieces of armor. The carving on the right, created around 1485, shows Saint George wearing a full suit of armor. 1927.19.4 2014.1 WORCESTER ART MUSEUM / 55 SALISBURY STREET / WORCESTER, MA 01609 / 508.799.4406 / worcesterart.org SLIDE 5 Mail Armor 2014.842.2 The first type of armor worn to protect soldiers was mail armor, commonly known as chainmail.

    Acta Periodica Duellatorum, Conference Proceedings 7 DOI 10.1515/apd-2017-0006 The armour of the common soldier in the late middle ages. Harnischrödel as sources for the history of urban martial culture Regula Schmid, University of Berne, [email protected] Abstract – The designation Harnischrödel (rolls of armour) lumps together different kinds of urban inventories. They list the names of citizens and inhabitants together with the armour they owned, were compelled to acquire within their civic obligations, or were obliged to lend to able-bodied men. This contribution systematically introduces Harnischrödel of the 14th and 15th c. as important sources for the history of urban martial culture. On the basis of lists preserved in the archives of Swiss towns, it concentrates on information pertaining to the type and quality of an average urban soldier’s gear. Although the results of this analysis are only preliminary – at this point, it is not possible to produce methodologically sound statistics –, the value of the lists as sources is readily evident, as only a smattering of the once massive quantity of actual objects has survived down to the present time. Keywords – armour, common soldier, source, methodology, urban martial culture, town, middle ages. I. INTRODUCTION The designation Harnischrödel (“rolls1 of armour”) lumps together different kinds of urban inventories. They list the names of citizens and inhabitants together with the armour they owned, were compelled to acquire within their civic obligations, or were obliged to lend to able-bodied men. Harnischrödel resulted from the need to assess the military resources of the town and its territory available in times of acute military danger.
