The Negau helmet (Alpine type, Sanzeno variant) is one of the objects claimed by Domenico Pini to have been excavated by him in June/July 1901 at the [[Giubiasco necropolis]], but may have been bought, or found at nearby Pianezzo ({{bib|Tori et al. 2004}}: 27 f., 64 f., 69).

The Sanzeno Werkstattkreis being associated with the Fritzens-Sanzeno culture in Südtirol and the Trentino, Egg (p. 109 f.) considers the two helmets from Giubiasco (also no. 374) to be imports.  See also {{bib|Ulrich 1914}} I: 617.

Commentary

Images in Ulrich 1914 II: Taf. LXXX.2, 2a (photos), Egg 1986: 149, Abb. 17 (detail drawings), Taf. 285, 286a (photos), De Marinis & Biaggio Simona 2000 II: 454, no. 414 (photo).

The Negau helmet (Alpine type, Sanzeno variant) is one of the objects claimed by Domenico Pini to have been excavated by him in June/July 1901 at the Giubiasco necropolis, but may have been bought, or found at nearby Pianezzo (Tori et al. 2004: 27 f., 64 f., 69). The forged grave complex is described in Tori et al. 2004: 250. Detailed description of the helmet in Egg 1986: 148, no. 375. The Sanzeno Werkstattkreis being associated with the Fritzens-Sanzeno culture in Südtirol and the Trentino, Egg (p. 109 f.) considers the two helmets from Giubiasco (also no. 374) to be imports. See also Ulrich 1914 I: 617.

The dating follows Egg 1986: 102–111 for Negau helmets of the Alpine type with Flechtband decoration, specimens of the Sanzeno variant being attested from LT B2 onward. Motta 2000: 216, no. 28 gives the middle of the 4th–middle of the 2nd c. BC, Morandi 2004 the 4th–3rd c. BC.
