While scanning the pic of the Persian saddle from Sekunda's Seleucid book I was reminded of this image as well. The sword in the upper left is obviously a common Khopis, but what is the scabbarded sword on the lower right? Does the curved sword turn in like a sicca or out like a sabre?
Note the shields. Sekunda attributes the top one to Seleucid tarantines.
