Product Description
Early Medieval Times, The Most Common Shield Used Was The 'Hoplon' Created By The Greeks That Were Circular In Shape And Made From Wood And Bronze. These Type Of Shields Were Developed Based On Earlier Models That Were Made Completely Made From Bronze. Medieval Shields Were Developed To Shield, Or Protect, A Knight Or Soldier From The Direct Blows From The Weapons Of Their Enemies. Shields Used During The Medieval Times Of The Middle Ages Were Also Used As Bludgeoning Weapons. The Use Of The Shield As An Actual Weapon Was Practiced By Knights At The Pell. Shields Were Oval Or Round And Made Of Light, Tough Wood Covered With Leather. Metallic Mountings Lined The Rims. A Hole In The Center Of Each Shield Was Bridged By A Hand Grip Inside And A Shield Boss Outside. Weapons Were The Spear, Sword, Ax, And The Bow And Arrow. A Shield Is Not A Weapon, It Is Basically Armor, That's Why Heavy Armored Knights Rarely Used Shield And That's Why Hoplites Didn't Wear Armor On Their Torso And Upper Legs, Because The Shield Was Just Enough To Cover Almost The Entire Body.
