Dov Gutterman, 1 July 2001The main field of the coat of arms clearly
shows the mountain known as the Dedo de Deus (finger of God), near which
this town is apparently located. This is a prominent geological feature of
the Rio de Janeiro area and also appears on the state coat of arms, as shown on the
state flag.
