The culture of ancient Russia and the Scandinavian peoples is very similar. Therefore, the weapon looks very similar to the Viking weapon. Although if we consider the shield, then its shape was adopted from the Greeks
Nope. Greek shields (Aspis, Thyreos, Pelte) were either round or oval. This here is a typical kite shield, like it's prominently depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry. It became popular around 1,000 BC and was mainly used by mounted cavalry. It's a beautiful mod though, so thank you.
