The coat of arms of Yucatán (Spanish: Escudo de Yucatán, lit. "state shield of Yucatán") is a symbol of the Free and Sovereign State of Yucatán.[1]
Symbolism

At the base: a golden henequen plant, a terrace of stones or slabs of the same metal. A gold border with two Mayan arches and two Spanish colonial belfries, placed at the head and at the tip, dexter and sinister, respectively.[citation needed]
