I'm going to put this label up to be more transparent. I requested this image based on the previous images. I'm not happy with how the pants were designed. The helmets that this unit would use are very specific. Auxiliary cavalry helmets. -

http://byzantinemilitary.blogspot.com/2024/12/roman-camel-cavalry.html?m=1 My intention was only to show Arab clothing used by some Palmyrene units; it's complicated to show a single look for the troops. The most outstanding and different units in the Palmyra army that distinguish them from other civs are the camel riders. "Dromedarii were camel-riding auxiliary forces recruited in the desert provinces of the late Roman Empire in Roman Syria". "A 1000-strong dromedarius unit, the ala I Ulpia Dromedariorum milliaria, was established by Trajan in Syria. A small number of dromedarii is recorded as part of the Cohors XX Palmyrenorum based in Dura-Europos in Roman Syria". -

The original uses javelins, but the descriptions mention multiple weapons: swords, spears, javelins, and arrows. I am using AI to refer to units that have hardly any illustrations. https://www.historiascripta.org/classical-antiquity/dromedarii-camel-riders-in-the-roman-army/ "Palmyra / Tadmor, Homs governorate, Syria: Palmyra Museum. Caravan camel guarded by men armed with spear and sword".
