Quote:Alexander Sarkophagus shows blue helmets but this is for the infantry,too,possibly hypaspists. But blue can always be interpreted as "iron".Though,thr Sidon sarcophagus shows blue helmets with yellow(bronze?) edge.

You mentioned grave stelae as well. Have you seen any Macedonian examples that show blue helmets in use?

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
