HISTORY

  • Round wooden style was predominantly used in the early European Middle Ages using light, non-splintering wood such as linden, fir, alder or poplar
  • Iron rim was sometimes used as a way to reinforce the shield
  • Used the "Shield Boss"--the round, convex piece of material at the centre of the shield--to deflect blows
