Godfrey of Bouillon's helmet is a full century out of date! Just had to point that out. Nice leader figure, regardless….

[Godfrey of Bouillon's helmet is a full century out of date! Just had to point that out. Nice leader figure, regardless….] Why is that? it is a simple face plate, the sculpter has replicated a Siculo Norman helm which appeared around 1120. So only 20 years out.
