Coat of arms
From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
A coat of arms is a design painted on a shield. These designs are hereditary, meaning that they pass from a father to his sons. In the middle ages, these designs were shown on actual shields, but today they are usually only drawn or painted. Lots of countries and businesses have coats of arms. Each symbol on the coat of arms will represent something that has an important meaning to that particular place or company.
