12. The FLOT Line is the believer’s Shield of Faith
Roman Scútum
The traditional shield of the
legionary was the curved, oval
scutum. A 1st-century BC
example measured 50’ long by 25”
wide and made of strips of planed
wood laminated in three alternate
layers. It was faced with felt and
calf skin and weighed 22 lb.
