The Coat of arms of Adygea is the official heraldic symbol of the Republic of Adygea, a federal subject of the Russian Federation. It was adopted in 1992, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the establishment of the republic.
Design[edit | edit source]
The coat of arms features a green field, symbolizing the natural beauty and fertility of the region. At the center of the shield is a golden bow with three arrows, which are traditional symbols of the Adyghe people. The bow and arrows represent the historical and cultural heritage of the Adyghe, as well as their readiness to defend their land.
Symbolism[edit | edit source]
The green color of the field represents the lush landscapes and the agricultural richness of Adygea. The golden bow and arrows are emblematic of the Adyghe's warrior past and their enduring spirit. The number three is significant in Adyghe culture, often representing harmony and balance.
History[edit | edit source]
The current coat of arms was adopted on March 24, 1992, after Adygea became a republic within the Russian Federation. It replaced the previous Soviet-era emblem, which featured typical Soviet symbols such as the hammer and sickle.
Usage[edit | edit source]
The coat of arms is used by the government of Adygea on official documents, buildings, and other state properties. It is also featured on the republic's flag.
