Ancient Rome: the Rise and Fall of an Empire

Quote:Their shields shouldn't be round though. They had a unique shape judging from the modern artwork I've seen.
I have found no ancient confirmation for these odd shapes that you see nowadays. I'd say round or oval, just like the Romans and the other Germanic peoples.
