The red, yellow, white and black are taken from the native medicine wheel
which was also used as a compass and applied to all aspects of indigenous life.
It was extensively used among northeast woodlands tribes. The red quadrant of
the wheel represented the wolf in some interpretations, and the wheel is pointed
toward the northeast.
The “enchanted wolf” with raised paw was the totem of
the Wappinger Confederacy, so included is the silhouette of a wolf and star,
with the wolf holding a scepter representing the royal heritage of the Siwanoys,
and with the initials of Ann Hook in purple, also representing our royal
heritage.
