The Sicily exhibition coming to the British Museum will include one of the Egadi rams as well as other fascinating stuff from the island influenced by so many different invaders.
link I have also heard that the Ashmolean exhibition Storms War and Shipwrecks will include TWO of the Egadi rams, including the Punic one! |

Cheers.
Both of those look interesting. I wonder if the Ashmolean will have any of the other stuff, like helmets. |

There's a chance of a Montefortino helmet for the Ashmolean, many were found. But the Carthaginian one is still being conservated as far as I am aware. info also at their FB.
