Carlo:I know that arch images and I agree that helmet really strongly reminds your drawing.But in this case I believe that it is not conclusive enough.Also I must ask why such helmets aren't depicted much more commonly if they already were in use by 4th.century.
I'm adding interesting picture from Dura-Europos showing helmets which also seemed to be very Carolingian in appearance but much more probably are just a stylized Niederbieber type of Roman helmet.
