These are perhaps houshold archers. The Sasanian reliefs of Taq-i-Bustan, has an Arrow Bearer in a Royal Boat at a Boar Hunt has very ornate dress.
The headwear on 'Khusraw's Dial' may be a patterned textile hat with a cloth wrapped around it like the wall hanging or on the horse-archer on the left in a battle between Arabs, Persians and Ethiopians. Coptic textile fragment, Egypt, late 6th or early 7th century, Louvre, rather than a helmet.
A similar cloth can be seen on the horse archer in a floor painting with hunting scene, Umayyad, Qasr al-Hayr al-Gharbi c.724-43AD
