Information: The jousting helmet appeared around 1400AD and lasted into the first quarter of the 16th century. Mounted knights primarily used it for jousting tournaments rather than on the battlefield. During jousting, the helmet offered a better degree of protection from lances that would splinter after impact with the rival’s body armour.
