no problem. Look above in Jasper's post 2102 to this topic, then click on <span style="text-decoration:underline">Acrabanis</span> and You will be lead to Jasper's "Imagebasis of Roman Military tumbstones" with the picture of Acrabanis. On the bottom are detail pictures. The fully shown rider in two of the detail pictures shows something what I think could be a cavalry archer's little round shield. It is the left arm seen from the body (left on the picture, it is not recognizable if it is the archer's left or right arm). Behind the upper arm appears the roundel, so we might look at the inside of the shield; IMHO there is even the brim of the shield visible.<br>
