Iranian trousers overview at Book and Sword
Sean Manning yesterday published a look at period trousers geared especially for reenactors who plan to attend Plataea 2021. It's as comprehensive an article as I've seen and includes details on Chehrabad Salt Man 4's pants, which date to the Achaemenid period and a mere 75-100 years after Plataea. Sean's recommendations on how you'll want to construct your trousers are bit more specific than mine have been to date.
