The shield is from India. No argument there. It could have found its way to Ethiopia, possibly at the time at the Napier's expedition. Everything is possible. So, in my opinion, if you believe the seller, the correct identification would be: INDIAN SHIELD BOUGHT IN ETHIOPIA. Having said that, it is a nice old shield, Cheers. Ron
