Ciao Roano , thank you very much. The shield that you show is very similar, thanks a lot.

Tim, maybe your somali shield on swap forum is better with a kaskara?

Hi Tim. I do not agree with your suggestion. All the pictures I have seen of Afar/Danakil warriors show them carrying (aside from rifles...) shield, spear and gile. No swords. Unless one considers the gile a short sword. Cheers, RON
