History: This full sized Japanese Battle Helmet is a actual reproduction of the one worn by the famous daimyo Date Masamune (1566-1636). Succeeding his father at the age of 18, Date Masamune defeated rivals to become the ruler of much of northern Japan. He later became interested in Christianity, and sent an embassy to Europe headed by Hasekura Tsunenaga. When he died at the age of 70, he was renowned as a warrior, a diplomat, and a patron of the arts.
