Lobster-tailed pot helmet
The lobster-tailed pot helmet, also known as the zischagge, horseman's pot and harquebusier's pot, was a type of post-Renaissance combat helmet. It became popular in Europe, especially for cavalry and officers, from c. 1600; it was derived from an Ottoman Turkish helmet type. The helmet gradually fell out of use in most of Europe in the late 17th century; however, the Austrian heavy cavalry retained it for some campaigns as late as the 1780s.
The French term ''capeline'' was also used for this helmet, however, usage of this word was not precise. "''Capeline''" was indiscriminately used to denote various types of hat, and helmets other than the lobster-tailed pot.
==Origin==
The lobster-tailed pot helmet had an oriental origin, being derived from the Ottoman Turkish 'chichak' (Turkish - ''çiçek'') helmet, which developed in the 16th century. It was adopted by the Christian states of Europe in the early 17th century. The chichak was almost identical to the later European helmets - it had a forward projecting peak, sliding bar nasal, cheekpieces and neck guard; only its tendency to have a conical rather than rounded skull was distinctive.〔Robinson pp. 62-63〕 The European derivative of this helmet saw widespread use during the Thirty Years War when it became known as the ''zischägge'', a Germanisation of the original Turkish name.
