My pleasure, Martin!
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.
