==Description and uses==
 
  
−
A [[scutum]] is one of the heaviest shields in the game.  It requires 1500 grams of [[wood]] and a {{carving knife}}.  This shield takes 8 days to make and is a bit better then a [[tortoiseshell shield]].  If you have a limited supply of [[iron]] but want great protection and don't mind the weight, the [[scutum]] is for you. Can be used to make a [[steel scutum]].

"Scutum (pronounced /ˈskuːtəm/, pl. scuta) is the Latin word for "shield", although it has in modern times come to be specifically associated with the rectangular, semi-cylindrical body shield carried by Roman legion." - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scutum_%28shield%29]
