Ian Heath's Spanish Heavy Infantryman in Armies of the Dark Ages 600-1066 is supposed to be based on an 11th century source, but it appears to be from Biblia Segunde de San Isidoro de Leon, of 1162AD. The shield matches one in King David sends his army to fight his son Absalom
Is there an 11th century source that matches?
