The trident, a tool once used for spearfishing, serves as a reminder of the traditional methods that sustained the Barbadian people for generations. Today, while modern fishing techniques have largely replaced the trident, the symbol remains a powerful evocation of the island’s reliance on marine resources and the need for sustainable management of these precious assets.

There is a knight’s helmet overhead with the broken trident shift clutched in a closed fist overhead.
