Viking shield are one of a kind & they could be much lighter than medieval shields .... from 4 pounds to 7 pounds.
Typical Medieval shields were kind of heavier ... ranging from 6 to 11 pounds.
Here we are talking of shields used in combat on foot. [Heater - Shields around 30'x18'
and Round-Shields around 26' ]
-----------------
....Because shields used by knights to break through were much bigger but useless in a Face-to-Face fight... they ranged from 10 to 15 pounds
They were meant to protect from arrows and to cover the whole body while approaching the enemy-lines. [ Big Kite-shields]
