That is a great photo....
I would assume this would be one of Philip's/Alexander's phalangites..? He is clearly holding a pelta.....

Yes, he is presumed to have been an officer of the phalangites.

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
