Clipeus

A clipeus is like a big shield that has a round shape and is usually made out of metal. It was used by ancient soldiers in Rome to protect their bodies from getting hurt in battle. The clipeus was decorated with pictures and designs that were important to the people who used it, like gods and goddesses or important leaders. It was also given as a gift to people who did good things for the city or showed bravery in battle. Think of it like a superhero shield, but from a long time ago.
