A full debunking video old Metatron style where I bring up my official position on both the concept of black Achilles, and that of the Romans depicted in the BBC cartoon the story of Britain.

I was wrong when dismissed the Helmet in the show as not correct. It was actually based on a real existing kind of helmet called the Illyrian. I still think I was right in saying the helmet wasn’t appropriate for Achillis because it would still be out of place in terms of dates, and because it would still be too open considering Homer actually describes Achilles as being very covered in armour and also because he tells us he loans his armour to his friend Patroclus with the intention of hiding his identity through the helmet, so it had to be closed. Still if you want to know more about the actual helmet check out Schola Gladiatoria’s video response to me
