[edit] Classification

I have certain queries re Imperial helmet (forgive me if I seem dim):

German experts classify these helmets as "Weisenau" types,

Here, the pronoun is ambiguous: does "these helmets" denote "the Imperial helmets"?

while H. Russell Robinson divided them into Imperial Gallic and Imperial Italic types.

Imperial Gallic is the type worn by Gauls, not Romans?

Perhaps the section could be retitled Classification of the Imperial helmet or Classification of Imperial helmet types? This might clear confusion as the reader approaches this section. Rintrah 09:23, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. I'll post my comments in the right place next time. Rintrah 12:50, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

No problem, it wasn't the wrong place. I just prefer to get a discussion merged out to the article itself, once it's underway, to open it out to everyone.Neddyseagoon - talk 15:11, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
