Default #1477 Moro Rattan Shield

According to Fred this is a Moro shield. 1900 or older. I seems the handles were added later. The construction is well done in the shield itself, but the handles are crude.

See the Panabas from Cato's book in another thread.

I wish we knew more about these types of shields, they come up from time to time.
