The symbols on a Crusader's shield often represented their faith and allegiance. Common symbols included crosses (such as the Latin cross or Jerusalem cross), lions, flowers, and other religious imagery. These symbols were meant to inspire courage and demonstrate the warrior's dedication to their Christian beliefs.

What do the symbols mean on a roman shield?

If you mean the design of the shield, it was updated with the times. The early armies used roundish or oval shields, then changed to the rectangular shield, which in turn gave way to the rectangular curved shield. With this curved shield a man could step into his shield to use it for pushing and it also protected his sides to an extent. If you mean any design on the outside of the shield, it was the emblem of the legion, if it was there at all. Most Roman shields are believed to have been unadorned, despite what Hollywood tells you.
