Ancient Roman scutum (shield). #ancientrome #scutum #history #ancienthistory

There are more of them in private collection and yes they're all red

What’s the back story behind the scutum where was it found how did it survive intact????

I would hide in the museum until it closed 😂 then geek out all night.

I've never seen it in a video - only pictures. Absolutely beautiful! Is this in the British Museum's "Legion" exhibit?
