Roman Shields and Roman Scutums from Dark Knight Armoury
The Roman shield was called a Scutum which is the Latin word for shield. The shape of the Roman shield was retangular and semi cylindrical. This curved shape would protect the Roman soldiers in the front and sides. As time went by Roman shields took more of an oval flat shape. Dark Knight Armoury has full sized and functional Roman shields of all types. Most of our Roman shields have a boss in the center with intricate designs coming from it.
