Maybe the dude just wanted to try an ancient perspective? Don't know about the details of a helmet from that time - but I equate it to wearing your friends powerful subscription glasses. Agree with other post's though - most likely he put it on to make a funny.
I am curious: Would a find like this be a huge "Payday"? Is it someone else's property you just found (it belongs to whomever funded the dig)?

The first half of the 20th century was a different time for archeology. Taking things from other countries to put in faraway museums, tripping ancient traps, punching Nazis...

On an unrelated note, I genuinely loved the new Indiana Jones game... It was amazing.

He probably saw how cool he looked in the photo and made wearing that his entire personality. Thats what I'd do at least.
