The Scutum was carried by Roman soldiers from 100 A.D. onward. These large size Roman Scutums are linen covered and have a large Brass Boss for hand protection. The core is made of Plywood, and then painted over. Each shield is individually hand painted.

The rectangular scuta were constructed largely of strips of overlapping bentwood, possibly set in place by steaming over a curved form (in much the same way as a modern plywood chair is made) although no direct evidence survives to prove this. This meant the shield was strong and yet light enough to be carried over long distances. The best surviving example, from Dura-Europos in Syria, was 1.06 m (42in) in height, a chord of 0.66 m (26in), with a distance around the curve of 0.86 m (34in), and a thickness of 5 mm to 6 mm.

The curved shape of the shield allowed it to absorb (and deal) heavy blows, while the sides sloped away from the attacker, allowing arrows and enemy blows to glance off without transmitting the full force of the impact to the legionary sheltering behind it. The boss in the centre of the shield (the umbo), constructed either from copper alloy (brass or bronze) or iron, was itself used offensively, being heavy and dense enough to stun or wind an opponent (easing the legionnaire''s subsequent strike with his gladius).

This is a replica of a Trojan Helmet similar to the one Achilles wore in Troy. The replica is bronze plated steel with a pitted texture for an aged look. Since bronze was the strongest metal available during this period this gives the helmet an authenticity in its look and feel.
The black plum on the top of the helmet is made out of horse hair.
The helmet includes a black leather arming attached to the helmet. This feature allows the helmet to be worn comfortably.

Originally the spatha was used by the Roman cavalry and as horsemen were regularly recruited from Gallic tribes the sword owes its origin to the Celts who when recruited were  issued chainmail shirts, oval shields, helmets and swords of their own native style.   

 Early spathae are depicted on tombstones with hilts and scabbards very close to legionary types. It is likely that the auxiliary cavalry units copied legionary fashions making these swords essentially a hybrid between Celtic and Roman weapon design.

The spatha began to replace the shorter gladius as the primary Roman sword from about AD.100 onwards. The Romans continued to use their spathae right up until the decline of the Roman Empire
