| The basic design of this flag
has been in use since 1866, however details were changed as recently
as 1957. Like many of Idaho's neighbors they proudly display their
state seal on the flag. The women represents liberty, justice
and equality. The man is a miner. The pictures on the shield represent
the main industries of forestry, farming and mining. The cornucopias,
or horn of plenty are symbols of abundance. The elk's head represents
wildlife. The motto is in Latin on the ribbon above the elk's
head. |
