ABOUT THE AWARD

As an award, SafetyXChange has chosen a life-size replica of a helmet worn by warriors of the Greek city-state of Corinth from around 500 B.C. Why something so unconventional? For one thing, the helmet represents personal protection. More importantly, however, this helmet was the gear able-bodied men of Corinth were expected to don when performing their duty of defending the city-state.

It’s also the helmet seen in depictions of many of Ancient Greece’s leading thinkers, such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. In short, the helmet embodies the qualities of citizenship, civic responsibility and enlightened thinking. That made it an ideal choice for the Saxcies™.
