English: Discovered in 1919 in the village Olszówka in Greater Poland. The shape of the helm, with its high top in the form of a tube, is known as shishak, derived from the Ottoman Turkish çiçak (chichak) helmet. This type of the helmet had an ancient oriental origin. The top of the Polish shishak was demaged during World War II.
