... that malahai(example pictured) served as a protective helmet, even though it is a fur hat? Source: https://cyberleninka.ru/article/n/kazahskaya-voinskaya-shapka-malakay-xviii-xix-vekov It's in Russian, but has an English summary at the end of the PDF article: "... author concludes, that "malakai" cap had polifunctional [sic] meaning. (...) used both as a warm headdress and a soft protective helmet. A high crown combined with front part (...) amortized an enemy's punch (made by blade weapon) and protected a warrior's head and neck."

BorgQueen, why not use the full image with the horse in the article and just the crop here? It might provide more context? — DaxServer (t · m · c) 17:17, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
I recall the full image wasn't available on Commons. Only the crop was. BorgQueen (talk) 17:21, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

The whole image is available on commons and I think we should use it instead of the cropped one. Without objection: File:Башкирский воин.jpg. Reviewer and creator seems to agree that a full image would be useful. Bruxton (talk) 20:05, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
