State Flag and Banner

State Flag

Adopted in 1971.

The State Flag is white, bearing on both sides a representation of the coat of arms (except that the five- pointed star is white instead of silver). In 1971, the flag was changed and only depicts the original front design and was adopted in its final form; before that, the obverse side depicted a pine tree. On a white field is a blue shield emblazoned with the image of a Native American, Massachusetts. He holds a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other. The arrow is pointing downward representing peace. The white star represents Massachusetts as one of the original thirteen states. Around the shield is a blue ribbon with the motto: " By the Sword We Seek Peace, but Peace Only Under Liberty". Above the shield is a arm and sword, representing the first part of the motto.
