Found in the Saône River near Trévoux, France. Originally had metal cheek pieces, a mail neck defense, and maybe an integral nasal. Decoration typically consists of patterns punched into the radiating straps and birds amid an undulating grapevine embossed on the brow band. Some examples include crosses and other Christian symbols.
