Roman legionary shield ULF-SD-15

This Roman Legionary Shield is a faithful reconstruction of the shields used by Roman soldiers between 40 and 200 AD. Unlike many replicas that deviate from the design and size of the originals, the ULFBERTH® team has created a much more authentic version, respecting the dimensions and characteristics of the historical finds.

Features of the Shield:

• Authentic Design Based on Roman Finds: The size, shape, and curvature of this Scutum are faithful to the original shields used by Roman legionaries. This shield is designed to provide maximum protection and versatility in combat, like those used in Roman defensive formations.
• High Quality Materials: The shield is made with a wooden base and tinned brass reinforcements, which replicate the original tinned bronze applications on Roman shields. The central hump ( Umbo ) is made of tinned brass, providing both strength and an authentic historical look.
• Wooden Reinforcements on the Back: To enhance its durability, the back of the shield is reinforced with wooden strips, ensuring that it can withstand use during reenactments or displays.
• Practical Fixings: While the Umbo is secured with screws for practical reasons, rounded caps have been used to maintain a historic look without compromising functionality.
