Dariusz:
There are three plates dealing with Parthians--A Hatran Envoy (D2 and D3) with two figures and a Babylonian Cavalryman (B3). I have not finished reading but it seems mostly a synopsis of Josephus. I regret that I was unable to visit Hatra on my last deployment, but I spent a while at Ur and that was a treat.
As to the 'rushed' quality of the art, I cannot comment. The images you linked are the ones in the book.

The limage of the Herodium is the one with the Babylonian Cavalryman who is just outside this picture, and that is Herod the Great featured in the cropped image.
I hope this was helpful.
