介绍（中）	这些翅膀形状的盾牌，具有独特的向上扫掠的后边缘，是匈牙利特有的轻骑兵盾牌。在十六世纪，基督教和伊斯兰骑手在东欧大部分地区都采用了这种风格。盾牌细长的上边缘设计用于保护后脑勺和颈部免受军刀的切割，军刀是该地区首选的骑兵武器右边的盾牌外部涂有先知穆罕默德的双刃剑，内部涂有十字架和激情的器具。这种不同寻常的伊斯兰和基督教符号的混合表明，盾牌是由一名穿着穆斯林服装的基督教战士在比赛中使用的。在这些"匈牙利风格"的比赛中，参赛者穿着匈牙利和土耳其的服装，用军刀砍下对手头盔和彩绘盾牌顶部的羽毛。即使在土耳其军队不断威胁东欧的时候，他们的服装和战术也被敌人模仿。
介绍（英）	These wing-shaped shields, with the distinctive upward-sweeping back edge, were the characteristic light-cavalry shields of Hungary. During the sixteenth century, the style was adopted across much of eastern Europe by both Christian and Islamic horsemen. The shield's elongated upper edge was designed to defend the back of the head and neck against cuts from a saber, the preferred cavalry weapon in that region. The shield on the right is painted on its exterior with the double-bladed sword of the prophet Muhammad and on its interior with the Crucifix and instruments of the Passion. This unusual mix of Islamic and Christian symbols suggests that the shield was used in a tournament by a Christian warrior dressed in Muslim fashion. In these "Hungarian style" tournaments, the participants wore Hungarian and Turkish costumes and used sabers to strike off feathers attached to their opponents' helmets and to the apex of their painted shields. Even at a time when Turkish armies were a constant threat to eastern Europe, their costumes and tactics were imitated by their foes.
