I have seen a colour picture of the first helmet in that picture in "The Arts of War: Arms and Armour of the 7th to 19th centuries (The Nasser D. Khalili Collection of Islamic Art, VOL XXI)". It is identified there as 7th-8th century and though to be late Sassanid or early Islamic.
I'm sure I have a picture of it somewhere.
Found it, click on the thumbnail please:
