rdfs:comment	The Battersea Shield is one of the most significant pieces of ancient Celtic art found in Britain. It is a sheet bronze covering of a (now vanished) wooden shield decorated in La Tène style. The shield is on display in the British Museum, and a replica is housed in the Museum of London. (en) Der Battersea-Schild (englisch Battersea shield) ist ein antiker Schild aus Bronze aus der Zeit um 300 v. Chr. und einer der bedeutendsten keltischen Kunstgegenstände der britischen Inseln. Er ist kein vollständiger Schild, sondern nur die Abdeckung eines nicht erhaltenen Holzschildes und wird heute im Raum 50 des Britischen Museums ausgestellt. (de) Le bouclier de Battersea est un élément représentatif de l’art celte de l'île de Bretagne, dont la fabrication est datée du Ier siècle av. J.-C. ou, au plus tard, du début du Ier siècle apr. J.-C.. Il a été retrouvé dans la Tamise à Battersea à proximité de Londres en 1857. (fr) Lo scudo di Battersea è uno scudo cerimoniale celtico, ritrovato nel 1857 nelle acque del Tamigi ed esposto al British Museum (stanza 50). Realizzato in bronzo, è probabilmente il più famoso prodotto dell'età del Ferro in Britannia. Prende il nome dal luogo di ritrovamento, situato lungo il Tamigi, probabilmente nei pressi del ponte sospeso noto come Chelsea Bridge. (it) Het Schild van Battersea is een schild, gedecoreerd in La Tène stijl. Het blad is van brons. Waarschijnlijk komt het uit de eerste eeuw voor Christus. Het schild is als depotvondst gevonden bij het baggeren van de Theems, tijdens opgravingen naar de voorganger van Chelsea Bridge. Het schild is vernoemd naar het Battersea Power Station, een voormalige kolencentrale, dat vlak naast de brug ligt. In dezelfde omgeving zijn er Romeinse en Keltische wapens en skeletten gevonden. Veel historici concludeerden na deze vondst dat Julius Caesar hier de Thames over is gestoken tijdens zijn verovering van Brittania in 54 v.Chr.. (nl)
