AMEL-SUR-L'ÉTANG
Département : Meuse
| French | Mi-tranché et retaillé en chef: au 1er de gueules au butor étoilé essorant d'or, tacheté de sable et la gorge d'argent, au 2e d'azur au casque de centurion romain d'or accosté de deux bars adossés du même; au chevronnel renversé d'argent brochant sur la partition. |
| English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on December 11, 2020.
The common bittern in the upper half is one of the bird species at the Étang d'Amel pond/lake, developed by monks in the 12th century for fish farming. The two bars also refer to the pond and fishing.
The two barbels refer to the Barrois (Duchy of Bar) to which the village historically belonged. The silver chevron only has a decorative function.
The Roman centurion's helmet recalls that the village existed already in the Gallo-Roman period; coins, found on the site, attest to this.
The oak twigs represent the surrounding forests.
