All have been carefully recorded and above all, with its proven provenance. Centuries of history have shaped these blazons, among which are those of the family name Cardus and throughout the Aragonese geography we can admire mansions and facades that still conserve the armeros stones that emblazon the lineage of the ancient infanzons, in most cases today inhabited by descendants of those hidalgos, such as the name Cardus. Our infanzons, as surely the Cardus, conscious of their duty and displaying the nobility of their race, they often promoted their troops at their expense and, leaving their homes and estates, set out to reconquer, enlarging the Aragonese kingdom and conforming with his effort and sacrifice what would later be the Crown of Aragon. Here we also have the heraldry and history of the name Cardus.

2) OR (Gold): Nobility, Magnanimity, Wealth, Power, Light, Constancy and Wisdom.

3) AZURE: Blue color that symbolizes Justice, Zeal, Truth, Loyalty, Charity and Beauty.

Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:
