czolem,
there is this very intersting stucco image of a warrior form the Zahak castle http://www.cais-soas.com/CAIS/Architect ... castle.htm
in Iran . I am not sure if this subject has been discussed here.

he appears to have a long Galatian (Celtic) or Roman infantry shield, so perhaps he is an infantryman. Perhaps a javelin, a curved knife behind his belt, A kandys/ kantus (Median Robe) over his shoulders, loose pants and boots...
His robe is hiked up and held up by the arrangement similar to this image of the Armeno-Parthian king of Media (Comagene) with Heracles himself
and different from this typical image of a Parthian http://realhistoryww.com/world_history/ ... anking.jpg or this
http://www.gutenberg.org/files/16166/16 ... ate008.jpg or Mithradates on horseback http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Xong- ... relief.jpg
