The earlier Gladius Hispaniensis, which was used since the Punic Wars, had a slight "leaf-blade" curvature. This was the largest and heaviest of the gladii, with the longest blade and more pronounced leaf-shape compared to the other forms. The Mainz variety came into use later on the Northern frontier, it had a shorter and wider blade and a triangular point. It eventually became the standard sword in Imperial times. The Coolus and Montefortino types of helmet (which co-existed) were produced from brass, bronze or iron and like many other elements of the legionary equipment descended from Celtic helmet design.
