That helmet thing was some sort of "disdain of death and danger" issue, wasn't it ? Meh, the things warriors come up with to dispel the fear of death...
I can kinda see why they didn't want a 2.5m doru, though. I mean, where the fig are you going to put that thing when you need to use the bow ? The about two-meter spear the Persians favoured (of Assyrian lineage, I understand) oughta have been a pain enough already...
The bow was just circumstances though, wasn't it ? The more advanced and powerful designs concoted on the steppes simply hadn't spread that far yet.
