User:Artemis Andromeda/Kuyavian Hybride
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kuyavian Hybride, also known as the hybride, demi-lion and demi-eagle, demi-eagle and demi-lion, the coat of arms of Kuyavia, and the coat of arms of Kuyavian Piasts, is a heraldic charge in the form of a half of a eagle, joined with a half of a lion, with both of them usually wearing together a crown on their joined heads. The charge originates from 12th century, and is a characteristic symbol of Kuyavia in Poland.
Currently, it is notably part of the coats of arms of the Łódź Voivodeship, and Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland.
