Translated from municipal
web site:
"The colours shown on our flag are white and green. White
represents peace [...] while green represents hope and our
cultivated fields."
"The coat of arms was selected in a competition won by
Gustavo Devoz Anillo; it represents a native, symbolizing our
indigenous past, depicted in the montainous area, emphasizing
that our municipality is located in the mountains."
