In the explanation of the coat of arms its say:

The F and the arrows (flechas in Spanish) represent Ferdinand II of Aragon while the Y and the yoke (yugo in Spanish) represent Isabella I of Castile.

Its suppose to said The F and the yoke (yugo in Spanish) not the arrows and the Y and the arrows (flechas in Spanish) not the yoke. That’s the way the picture is represented.

I also remembered it differently, so I checked the Spanish Wikipedia. The yoke (and F) are symbols for Ferdinand of Aragon, and the arrows (and Y) are symbols of Isabella of Castille. Thanks for pointing it out. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 21:46, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
