Coat of arms of the Komi Republic

Coat of arms of a Russian federal subject

Emblem of the Komi Republic

Armiger| Rostislav Goldstein, Acting Head of the Komi Republic
Adopted| 1994

The coat of arms of the Komi Republic (Russian: герб Респу́блики Ко́ми; gerb Respubliki Komi; Komi: Коми республикалӧн канпас; Komi respublikalön kanpas; SHRRF #153), designed by A. Neverov, was instituted by Law No. XII-20/1 on June 6, 1994, and reflects the mythic beliefs of the Komi peoples. The blazon has a field gules, featuring a bird of prey or with the face below corresponding with the goddess Zarni An, and six unhorned elk heads. On December 17, 1997, the Republican State Council passed the law, which changed the official coat of arms definition in order to agree with the rules of heraldry.[1][2]

A bird of prey in the traditional interpretation embodies the sun, authority, and the upper world, while elk is associated with power, generosity, and beauty. The combination of gules symbolizes the sun, maternity, and birth in the Komi folklore.
