Make A Hoplite ShieldAncient Greek soldiers were also known as Hoplites. They carried a large shield often made of wood. These were painted by the individual soldiers to their own design. Our hoplite shield below is made out of a paper plate and some imagination! We have an alternative Greek shield craft, possibly for older children, here.
To make your own hoplite shield you will need:
Paper plate Now you can draw or paint on any pattern of your choice. Let your imagination run wild. This site shows some examples of actual shields for inspiration. To make a handle for the shield, tape the two ends of the card to the back of the shield making a loop to slide your hand through.
There are some more photographs of replica Greek shields here. You can also color in some Greek hoplites: find our Ancient Greece coloring pages here
