THE BARBADOS FLAG
The description of the flag - Blue for the sea and sky of Barbados; Gold for the sand of its beaches. The symbol in the center panel is the Trident of the Mythical sea god Neptune.
This symbol appears in the Seal of the colony which was replaced by the Barbados Coat of Arms. 
The shaft of the Trident is broken indicating Barbados' break with its historical and constitutional ties as a former colony.

BARBADOS COAT OF ARMS

The Golden Shield carries two Pride of Barbados flowers (the National Flower) and the Bearded Fig Tree (after which Barbados is named).
The shield is supported by a dolphin (symbolic of the fishing industry) and by a pelican (after a small island called Pelican Island which existed off Barbados).
Above the shield is a helmet and mantling and above is a hand of a Barbadian holding two crossed pieces of sugarcane (symbolic of the Barbados sugar industry).

The cross formed by the cane is a reference to the cross on which St.Andrew was crucified - Barbados' Independence Day is celebrated on November 30th, Saint Andrews Day.
