Here we go...

These are Gangarians

This is the Sarangian. He can be identified as iranian because of his sleeved tunic, median leggins, shoes and butt orniment on the spear.

These are the Greeks at Persepolis.
The first is Ionian and the second Lydian

The last is a Neo-Hittite taken from an 8th century wall painting. He looks very much like an early Hoplite!
