===Ancient Greece=== ====Pilos hat==== The '''''pilos''''' (Greek: πῖλος, ''felt''<ref>[https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0057%3Aentry%3Dpi%3Dlos2 πῖλος], Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek-English Lexicon'', on Perseus</ref>) was a typical conical hat in Ancient Greece among travelers, workmen and sailors, though sometimes a low, broad-rimmed version was also preferred, known as ''petasos''.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Sacks |first1=David |last2=Murray |first2=Oswyn |title=A Dictionary of the Ancient Greek World |date=1995 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=9780195112061 |page=[https://archive.org/details/dictionaryofanci00sack/page/62 62] |url=https://archive.org/details/dictionaryofanci00sack |url-access=registration |language=en |quote="Travelers, workmen, and sailors might wear a conical cap known as a pilos; travelers, hunters, and other sometimes wore the low, broad-rimmed hit (petasos)}}</ref> It could be made of felt or leather.

Pilos caps often identify the mythical twins, or Dioscuri, Castor and Pollux, as represented in sculptures, bas-reliefs and on ancient ceramics. Their caps were supposedly the remnants of the egg from which they hatched.<ref>John Tzetzes, ''On Lycophron'', noted by Karl Kerenyi's ''The Heroes of the Greeks'', 1959:107 note 584.</ref> The pilos appears on votive figurines of boys at the sanctuary of the Cabeiri at Thebes, the ''Cabeirion''.<ref>Walter Burkert. ''Greek Religion'', 1985:281.</ref>

In warfare, the pilos type helmet was often worn by the peltast light infantry, in conjunction with the exomis, but it was also worn by the heavy infantry.{{Citation needed|date= January 2018}}

===Etruria=== Being of Greek origin the Pilos helmet was worn in the late Etruscan Period by the local armies in the region.<ref>{{cite book |last1=D’Amato |first1=Raffaele |last2=Salimbeti |first2=Andrea |title=The Etruscans: 9th–2nd Centuries BC |date=20 September 2018 |publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing |isbn=978-1-4728-2832-3 |page=50 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ojFjDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA50 |language=en|quote=The pilos helmet, of Greek origin, ... }}</ref>

===Rome=== [[File:Eid Mar.jpg|thumb|left|Pileus between two daggers, on the reverse of a denarius issued by Brutus to commemorate the assassination of Julius Caesar on the Ides of March]] The Roman pileus resembled the Greek pilos and was often made of felt.<ref name=Yarwood /> In Ancient Rome, a slave was freed in a ceremony in which a praetor touched the slave with a rod called a ''vindicta'' and pronounced him to be free. The slave's head was shaved and a pileus was placed upon it. Both the ''vindicta'' and the cap were considered symbols of Libertas, the goddess representing liberty.<ref>{{cite book|last=Cobb|first=T.R.R.|author-link=Thomas Reade Rootes Cobb|page=[https://archive.org/details/inquiryintolawof01cobbiala/page/285 285], 285n2|title=An inquiry into the law of Negro slavery in the United States of America|url=https://archive.org/details/inquiryintolawof01cobbiala|place=Philadelphia|year=1858|publisher=T. & J.W. Johnson}}</ref>

The rod and hat were part of a legal ritual of manumission. A 3rd-party ''adsertor libertatis (liberty asserter, neither slaver or enslaved)'' would state: ''Hunc Ego hominem ex jure Quiritum liberum esse aio (I declare this man is free)'' while using the "vindicta" (one of multiple manumission types). The legal ritual was explicitly designed to be anti-slavery in the interest of self-empowerment of all members of society, even those legally unable to pursue it directly e.g. the enslaved, and to guarantee that liberty was permanent.<ref>{{cite book |last=Leage |first=Richard William |page=[https://books.google.com/books?id=8PcHAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA53&lpg=PA54 53-54], 53n2 |title=Roman Private Law, Founded on the 'Institutes' of Gaius and Justinian - 3rd edition |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8PcHAAAAMAAJ |year=1920 |publisher=Macmillan and Company, limited}} The law was meant to increase liberty rather than continue to allow society to stagnate in the Byzantinian dynasty (Justinian is credited with the policy while "restoring the empire"). By legally declaring the intrinsic liberty of the person, even on fictional grounds e.g. ''manumissio censu (freedom due to census-based citizenship that didn't exist due to being enslaved)'', slaves were allowed to improve their condition. By declaring it intrinsic, the anti-class-mobility slavers could pretend to agree to it. The pronouncement would be repeated by the enslaver if they agreed. (With optional Pileus?) In case of enslaver silence, they would be compelled to agree by the praetor. Over time the ritual became more universal, simpler, and redundant; it could be performed without a 3rd party present or even ''manumissio minus justa (without fair hearing)''. All kinds of manumission (including the use of the Vindicta and the Pileus) were collectively ''manumissiones legitimae (legit)''. Nevertheless it implied guaranteed freedom permanently due to lack of assistance by the praetors to renegers wanting to re-enslave.</ref>

In one 19th-century dictionary of classical antiquity it is written: "Among the Romans the cap of felt was the emblem of liberty. When a slave obtained his freedom he had his head shaved, and wore instead of his hair an undyed pileus."<ref>πίλεον λευκόν, Diodorus Siculus Exc. Leg. 22 p. 625, ed. Wess.; Plaut. Amphit. I.1.306; Persius, V.82</ref> Hence the phrase ''servos ad pileum vocare'' is a summons to liberty, by which slaves were frequently called upon to take up arms with a promise of liberty (Liv. XXIV.32). The figure of Liberty on some of the coins of Antoninus Pius, struck 145 AD, holds this cap in the right hand.<ref>Yates, James. Entry "Pileus" in William Smith's ''A Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities'' (John Murray, London, 1875).</ref>

In the period of the Tetrarchy, the Pannonian cap (''pileus pannonicus'') was adopted as the main military cap of the Roman army, until the 6th century AD; it was worn by lightly armed or off-duty soldiers, as well as workmen.<ref name=Cleland /><ref name=Rocco /><ref name="Summer-D'Amato" /> It often appears in Roman artwork, in particular mosaics, from the late 3rd century AD. The earliest preserved specimen of the hat was found at the Roman quarry of Mons Claudianus, in the eastern desert of Egypt, and is dated to 100–120 AD; it has a dark-green color, and looks like a low fez or pillbox hat.<ref name="Summer-D'Amato" /><ref>{{Cite book |last=Bender Jørgensen |first=Lise |chapter-url=https://books.openedition.org/cdf/5234 |title=The Eastern Desert of Egypt during the Greco-Roman Period: Archaeological Reports |date=2018 |publisher=Collège de France |isbn=9782722604889 |editor-last=Brun |editor-first=Jean-Pierre |language=en |chapter=Textiles from Mons Claudianus, ‘Abu Sha’ar and other Roman Sites in the Eastern Desert. |editor-last2=Faucher |editor-first2=Thomas |editor-last3=Redon |editor-first3=Bérangère}}</ref>
