Keris and Shields?

S.Workman · 8th June 2014, 02:07 AM

Probably anyone who has googled "keris" or any variable has run into these valiant gentlemen. I wonder if this type of shield was used with keris in combat, or if anyone has ever gotten a shield like this for their collection of ethnographic arms? Or perhaps this was just posed this way, and the stalwarts were just being agreeable? If this is a legitimate assemblage, were these shields used in some kind of sword-and-buckler art?
