Tartessos

Late bronze age in Spain is widely covered by the so called estelas which depicts several warriors and their chariots:



The 1/72 representation is more a guess than anything

 
Armour and helmets are covered in the estelas:
 
And these shields patterns are repreented in many of them (more than 120 "estelas have been found)
 
 
 
 
 And for a very interesting web page with different chariot, weapons and shields drawings and patterns see:

    4. Si, un enterramiento de un noble ibérico con un carro (de ahí los de las "ruedas", no por la Belén obviamente) perfectamente documentado arquelógicamente hablando. Comprado en el Museo Arqueológico hace un par de años

  2. Fascinating. I had not realised there were Spanish Chariot soldiers in the Bronze Age although I knew of the Sardinian 'Sea peoples'.
