Thanks, a popular article attributes a similar diagram to a 1983 publication by a Barry Raftery (possibly A Catalogue of Irish Iron Age Antiquities). Hopefully either the book by Edwards or the book by Raftery has it!
This seems to be another case where people in slightly different fields don't talk to one another, because "Roman army" people know about the Hjortspring shields and the British shields and "Bronze Age Europe" people know about the two wooden shields from Bronze Age Ireland.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
