Thanks BI for sharing these beautiful pictures with us. Thank you especially for photographing the bowcase, a piece of Islamic warriors equipment that is often overlooked.
Have you got any more photos of that bizzare helmet, the one that is a cross between a
shishak and
kulah khud? I don't think I have ever seen anything like that before. You wouldn't happen to know if it was made that way, or is it a
kulah khud that has been "Ottomanified"?
