Crosby Garrett Helmet Part II

I put this story up a few days ago since then its been all over the web. Just in case you missed it, a guy has found a Roman Cavalry Helmet in Cumbria with a Metal Detector. The Tullie House museum and art gallery have launched an appeal to try and keep the artifact in the U.K. You can donate at the link by downloading the donation form. I would strongly urge you to do this, the helmet is a very significant find and really should be kept in the U.K. The item goes under the hammer at Christies on the 7th October 2010 so you need to be quick to dontate and help out. Please give what ever you can.
