War, Weapons, and Armor - Armor Les Invalides

War, Weapons, and Armor - Armor Les Invalides.  One of the coolest exhibits I've ever seen was a special exhibit at Les Invalides in Paris.  These pieces were from the Medieval times and earlier.  Notice the progression of shield design.  Which do you think came first?
