Greetings
The Sarmatians were headhunters and also drank blood, but of horses, mixed with meal. It is thought to be the originator of black pudding over in Lancashire...where, of course, they were based at Bremetenacum
According to Osprey Rome's Enemies 2 Gallic and British Celts (my copy is from 1991) - Trajans Cavalry Guard with the heads are Gallic. There is a rather nice drawing of them (sorry, don't have a scanner at home at the moment )

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
