Thumbs up Shields

Mark is right on. I've seen two versions of the round shield most between 18" to 20" and a larger one about 24". The sqaure ones I've seen in many sizes but all much larger than the round ones. The one pictured in the gallery is big enough for a small man to hide behind. And then there is this strange one below, from the Lop Buri museum, that I had not seen before either in picture or illustration. It appears to be made to cover the entire length of the arm from shoulder to hand with brass studs down the center, couldn't tell what it was made of. You can just make it out under the reflection.
