1) SABLE: Black color that symbolizes Prudence, Sadness, Rigor, Honesty and Obedience.

* FIG: The Fig Tree or its leaves symbolize the State Benefactors.

* WOLVES: The Wolves are a symbol of a Constant Heart that suffers the calamities of war and siege with generous spirit; but when the time comes to fight in the open field, he fiercely fights, without giving his enemy a barracks.

* ARROW: The Fess represents Readiness (for battle); if depicted with a cross, represents an affliction.

* SEA: The Sea symbolizes a raging and wrathful spirit that does not lose, however, the limits of the obedience that it owes to its sovereign.

* EAGLE: The Eagle is an emblem of Generosity, Magnanimity and Bizarre spirit, that from the greatest heights does not stop monitoring the fulfillment of the least obligations of his position.
