I just got around to reading this. From research perspective you landed on an excellent find. Thank you.

Herodotus also provided another colourful tale regarding the Battle of Pelusium. When Herodotus visited the site of the battle, he was shown the bones of the men who had fallen during the battle. The remains of the Egyptians were lying on one side of the field, whilst those of their enemies on another. One way of identifying whether a skull belonged to an Egyptian or a Persian was to strike it with a stone. If the stone made a hole in the skull, then it belonged to a Persian; if it did not, then it belonged to an Egyptian. According to the historian, this is due to the fact that from young, the Egyptians “shave their heads and the bone thickens in the sun”, whilst the Persians “wear felt tiaras from birth and so shelter their heads from the sun”. Once again, we may never know how much truth there is in this claim.
