representing the emancipation of the municipality;
- a parchment meaning
learning and education;
- plants of coffee and millet (flanking the shield
dexter and sinister) and of tobacco, representing the main agriculture products;

- a yellow scroll with the date
of municipal emancipation (1 March 1963) from the municipality of Rio Pomba (Law
No. 2764 of 30 December 1962);
- a blue field, representing the sky;
- a
rising sun;
- the land, the source of income of the municipality.
