The T&T coat of arms was created in 1962 upon attaining our independence from Britain.Below is a description of it's various elements and what they symbolise:
Tobago had its own coat of arms before being unified with Trinidad.The palm tree at the top was taken from their coat of arms and added on.
Below the palm tree is a shield in the same colours as the national flag-red,white and black.
At the top of the shield are two gold hummingbirds.T&T is sometimes referred to as the 'Land Of The Hummingbird' because more than 16 different variations of them have been spotted here on our twin islands.
Below these two birds we find three ships,also golden in colour representing the ships Christopher Columbus used on his voyage from Spain to the 'New World' These ships were called the Santa Maria,La Niña and La Pinta.Columbus arrived and explored Trinidad and Tobago in 1498.
On both sides of the shield are two more birds,large ones.They are the national birds of T&T.To the left we have the red Scarlet Ibis and to the right is the Cocrico.
Below the Scarlet Ibis are three hills,representing the Trinity hills found in a south-eastern part of Trinidad. Trinity is a Spanish word that means Trinidad in English.Legend has it that Columbus spotted these hills on his approach and thus named the island Holy Trinity or Trinidad.
Below the Cocrico is an island rising out of the blue waters.This also represents Tobago along with the palm tree at the top.
At the very bottom there is our nations motto: 'Together We Aspire Together We Achieve' This is a short phrase encapsulating the beliefs and ideals of our country.
