Hi

What is the true name of Graham's cap? I know it's called an "Adventurer's Cap" but, what is the cap/hat style's actual name, because I've seen the cap in movies that have a medieval setting such as Robin Hood and I've been wondering what the hat is really called so I can find some info on it and when exactly it was worn.

I don't know.  You might try asking the folks at the armour archive, if you can provide a picture.  :)

I've heard it referred to as a medieval ranger's hat, or even hunter's hat in other sources.
Well, ya, King's Quest is on Earth. Daventry is very old city from a long time ago. It's in ruins now and people aren't quite sure exactly where it used to be. There are some archaeologists searching through the ruins, they think they know its Daventry. But its somewhere on Earth."-Roberta Williams http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/File:Daventryisearth.ogg

I don't think so. :P

I was confusing it with that other hat that people in the military wear, the one that doesn't have a visor.  What do you call that hat?

Ya did a bit more research into it, and most places I checked called the hat that Graham and Robin Hood wear, a "Hunter's Hat".
