Spangenhelm is not named as such in the books, but a description that matches this kind of Greek helmet is…,
“Above the shield was suspended a helmet, again reminiscent of a Greek helmet, perhaps of the Homeric period. It had a somewhat “Y”-shaped slot for the eyes, nose, and mouth in the nearly solid metal.”
Tarnsman of Gor, page 22
“. . . and the simple helmet, innocent of insignia, with empty crest plate, of curved iron with its “Y”-like opening, and cushioned with rolls of leather.”
