It would appear they more about shields than you do. Try fact checking your statment and you'll learn not only are these named correctly based on size and shape but also for thier uses.

See - Achille Marozzo in his Opera Nova. for buckler

See - Targe - was a concave shield fitted with enarmes on the inside, one adjustable by a buckle, to be attached to the forearm, and the other fixed as a grip for the left hand.


 * the shape was more a factor or region than definable use. *

Cheers!
