[Regia-NA] Hats and headgear

[Douglas Sunlin]

The Coppergate cap is, I believe, more like the bashlyks worn by the ancient 
Scythians, than exactly a coif from middle ages. Anyone got a picture?

If you come out to California (or Arizona or Nevada for that matter), you'll 
quickly seek something - anything - to wear over your head. When sunburn, 
heatstroke and sunstroke are dangers, would not some kind of headwear become 
a safety issue?


Looking out for the troops,
