The Viking shield is round and constructed primarily of wood, with a bowl shaped 'boss' made of iron at the center. This boss provided protection for the warrior’s hand that gripped the shield directly behind it with a single grip.
Viking shields varied in size from about twenty-four to thirty-eight inches in diameter, so that the individual warrior could find the right balance of coverage versus weight.
