when were the Danum shields used??

[Quintus Julius Furius]

Is it so credible ?

Excuse my english !

I think that the handgrip was verticale, to take somme javelins ...

But this supposition is very interessant !

But there are some shields like this one in German/ celtic population .....

With the handgrip verticale......

This schied was for an auxilairy infantry or Cavalery....????

For the infantery : it's a light shield for "artilleurs", to attack ennemi and going to protect legions ..."It is not very good for the contact..."
