Question: Shields under the Migration Period.
#11
My pleasure, Martin! Big Grin
By the sixth century, only round shields are recorded and all the Vendel shields were round, as their surviving (more or less) 'in situ' metallic fitings denote. There is a good study on the final publication of the Sutton Hoo burial, comprising several of the Vendel period shields. I'l try to have a look at it along these days... :wink:

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.
