“Like many forms of Aboriginal shields, wunda were used in fighting for protection against projectile weapons, such as spears and boomerangs. They were also carried by performers in ritual contexts, especially when reenacting specific episodes from the Dreaming (primordial creation period), in which ancestral beings were said to have been armed with shields” - The Metropolitan Museum of Art. You are getting TWO shields. It is a great deal and perfect for anyone who values unique antiquities. These are hand carved wood. Measurements are also pictured. Please message for any questions.
