I watched an English language vid this morning about this find, it didn't turn up in the search, looks like very similar or identical footage though. Well, not footage anymore...
Tijekom arheoloških istraživanja na položaju “Gomile” u Zakotorcu na Pelješcu, pronađena je još jedna grčko - ilirska kaciga u jednom od suhozidnih dodataka uz grobove, očigledno votivnog karaktera. Već na samom početku istraživanja, uz brojne druge nalaze nakita, nošnje i grobnih priloga, ovaj nalaz kacige u mnogočemu doprinosi poznavanju pogrebnih rituala ilirskih zajednica u drugoj polovici zadnjeg tisućljeća prije Krista, a područje Pelješca svrstava u najznačajnije arheološke zone istočno-jadranske obale.

Na istraživanjima u Zakotorcu na Pelješcu sudjeluju arheolozi iz Dubrovačkih muzeja - voditelj Arheološkog muzeja dr.sc. Domagoj Perkić i kustosi pripravnici Paula Knego i Vicenco Pijerov te kolege iz drugih institucija – Hrvoje Potrebica, Marko Dizdar, Borut Križ, Marta Kalebota, Miona Miliša, Miroslav Vuković i Mirna Šandrić, uz pomoć Ivana Pamića.

Istraživanjima koordinira Centar za prapovijesna istraživanja s arheolozima Odsjeka za arheologiju Filozofskog fakulteta u Zagrebu, Instituta za arheologiju te Dubrovačkih muzeja, uz suradnju kolega iz Gradskog muzeja u Korčuli, Dolenjskog muzeja iz Novog Mesta u Sloveniji i Umjetničke akademije u Splitu.

During archaeological excavations at the Gomile site in Zakotorac on the Pelješac Peninsula another Graeco-Illyrian helmet has been found, in one of the drystone wall additions to the graves, clearly of a votive character. Right at the outset of the excavations, along with numerous other finds, of jewellery, garments and grave goods, this discovery of a helmet makes multiple contributions to the understanding of the funeral rites of the Illyrian communities in the second half of the last millennium BC. It also puts Pelješac among the most important archaeological zones along the eastern coast of the Adriatic.

Also taking part in the excavations at Zakotorac on Pelješac were archaeologists from Dubrovnik Museums - the manager of the Archaeological Museum, Dr Domagoj Perkić and trainee curators Paula Knego and Vicenco Pijerov as well as colleagues from other institutions – Hrvoje Potrebica, Marko Dizdar, Borut Križ, Marta Kalebota, Miona Miliša, Miroslav Vuković and Mirna Šandrić, with the assistance of Ivan Pamić.

The excavations are being coordinated by the Prehistoric Research Centre with archaeologists from the archaeology section of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb, the Archaeological Institute, and Dubrovnik Museums, with collaboration from Korčula City Museum, the Dolenjska Museum of Novo Mesto in Slovenia and the Art Academy in Split.

Too many departments chasing prestige and funding. MMA fighting often finds blood on the mat. In academia whole careers can bleed out.

The video shows the helmet as it would have appeared in a complete museum uniform.
