The national flag of Barbados was officially adopted on November 30 , 1966 , the island's first Independence Day. It consists of a Tricolor of two bands of Ultramarine separated by a golden middle band. A black Trident head is centred within the golden band. The trident head - also known as the 'broken trident' - symbolizes Barbados' independence from the United Kingdom (the colonial Coat Of Arms contained a complete trident), and each point represents a point of Democracy . The ultramarine bands symbolize the ocean and the sky, and the golden band symbolizes the Sand of Barbados. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
