Type of shield
A roromaraugi is a parrying shield from San Cristobal Island in the Solomon Islands.
Uses.
It was used to deflect the enemy’s arrows and spears. It has a broad sickle-shaped head that is separated by a well-marked central ridge with a spur on the back. The handle is often finished by an anthropomorphic sculpture and the whole is done in very hard wood. It was also used in war dances and measures more or less . It should not be confused with the "qauata" which does not have a spur and looks more like a leaf.
