With 'Tartessos' helmets you mean this?:

And why do you think that was a Tartessian helmet?

You quoted that from here:

And the headgear of the guys on those "double bird-headed warships" looks nothing like this:

However, Docy, that was a very interesting and creative interpretation.

And I don’t think Tartessos existed at 1200BC.

Well, there was some sort of culture there (SW-Iberia) before the arrival of the Phoenicians.

You know that *I* think its name 'Tartessos' came from a metathesis of the Phoenician goddess 'Astarte' or 'Ashtarte': sh.t.r.t > t.r.t.sh. The -os ending of the name was of Greek origin.

Jaylemurph once said that metathesing only happens if the majority of a population is litterate, and that thàt wasn't the case in those times. I, of course, didn't agree...

 

The Greek geographer Strabo referred to the Turdetani, the successors of the Tartessians, as a people who had laws written in verse from six thousand years old. I must add, though, that claim might be wrong because the quoted sentence of Strabo isn't complete or clear.

Edited to add:

This was my other explanation of the name, based on Phoenician:

@Alchopwn

What do yóu think about my explanation of the name "Tartessos"?

You're the one to ask according to Piney.

It was a horse's bit.

But yeah, it does look like a boat.

Now please tell me: what reason did the Tartessians have to attack Egypt?

i asked you a couple of times, and I will ask you again.

I put this on because they were the ancient Greeks part of sea peoples that had those helmets on with the Tartessians

Hi Docy

Look closer as the second picture is not like the first 2, the first ones are hair.

Regarding the earrings that two of the images on the busts are wearing, Rodríguez adds: “These types of earrings have been found at other sites of the era and region, so they are very well-documented, but now we finally know how they were worn: the chain was used to attach it to the ear.” Another of the busts depicts a warrior with a braid, a symbol of the transition to adulthood that was very common in the protohistory of the Iberian Peninsula. The researchers believe that the set of pieces, all of which have a flat back, were part of the same relief narrating a story involving, among others, this young warrior and, perhaps, the goddesses who protected him, represented by the two women with fuller faces.

 

It's a hairstyle:

And this is the young warrior with his braid:
