The houndskull helmet, also known as the "houndstooth" or "hound's snout" helmet, was a type of medieval helmet that originated in Europe during the 14th century. The helmet featured a long, pointed visor that resembled the snout of a hound, with two small eye slits and a small opening for breathing. The helmet was designed to provide protection to the entire head, including the face, and was often worn in conjunction with a mail coif or aventail to protect the neck. The houndskull helmet was typically made of steel and was often decorated with intricate engravings or embellishments.
