Wooden and metal defences against arrows, pole arms and stopping the deadly blows from swords, these were the most required protection by all foot warriors on the battle field. The oldest form of shield was a protection used to block attacks by hand weapons, such as swords, axes and maces or missiles like spears and arrows. Shields have varied greatly in construction over time and place. Sometimes shields were made of metal, but wood or animal hide construction was much more common.
