We see here on these pics a man with a bashlyk whose name was Tiribazos/Tiribazus/Terbazus.

*

His name should have been Türkic:

Tiribaş, a name/title 100% compatible name with Türkic onomastics existed and still exists in Türkic world. 

Tiri- means to live, alive 

and baş means head. 

His name could have meant sharp-minded that is suitable for a chieftain and commander. 

*

A second option could be Delibaş, meaning crazyhead. 

*

He was probably a Türk and a good commander in Achaemenid Kingdom.
