Po i njejti autor shënonte te Jetë Paralele se edhe Pirroja e Epirit (i cili për disa vjet qe mbret i Maqedonisë) mbante një simbol të tillë, dhe maqedonasit që ishin ngirtur kundër tij kur ia panë përkrenaren kaluan menjëherë në anën e tij.
Numizmatika - shkenca e studimit të monedhave të lashtësisë e ka provuar saktësinë e këtyre dy pohimeve, sepse të gjitha monedhat e gjetura në lidhje me mbretërit maqedonas por edhe epirotin Pirro, figurojnë me dy brirë në diademë-kurorë.Several of these Pyrrhus himself sent privately, pretending to be Macedonians, and saying, now was the time to be delivered from the severe government of Demetrius by coming over to Pyrrhus, a gracious prince and a lover of soldiers. By this artifice a great part of the army was in a state of excitement, and the soldiers began to look every way about inquiring for Pyrrhus. It happened he was without his helmet, till understanding they did not know him, he put it on again, and so was quickly recognized by his lofty crest and the goat's horns he wore upon it. Then the Macedonians, running to him, desired to be told his password, and some put oaken boughs upon their heads, because they saw them worn by the soldiers about him. Some persons even took the confidence to say to Demetrius himself, that he would be well advised to withdraw and lay down the government. And he, indeed, seeing the mutinous movements of the army to be only too consistent with what they said, privately got away, disguised in a broad hat and a common soldier's coat. So Pyrrhus became master of the army without fighting, and was declared King of the Macedonians.
