Massachusetts (MA) State Flag
The 6th state, admitted 1788
Massachusetts state flag first had a flag that had a different design on each side. In 1971, the Massachusetts state flag was changed and only depicts the original front design. It is a of a Native American on a blue shield. He is holding a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other, pointed down to symbolize peace. A crest above the shield shows an arm bent at the elbow, hand holding a sword. This illustrates the Massachusetts state motto, "By the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty."
Massachusetts State Flag Adopted: 1971
