Hi Dany Boy!
Sorry for answering so late! I have been out of the forum and also reenacment due to many reasons. I expect to have more free time!!
I think this kind of helmet was very common in all hellenistic armies, and there were a lot of variations of the same model so it is possible that this helmet was also widely represented in art, . I can see a soldier on that relief that is wearing a helmet very close to mine (third head from the left), but others seem to wear an attic helmet. Is there a spina on their shields? Maybe they are thureophoroi..
