waving blue stripe representing the abundant water in the zone
and also in reverence to the primitive Matron of the town of
Cayey. The shield is topped with the silver lamb symbol of San
Juan of Puerto Rico, and a red book. The colors red and gold
symbolize the Spanish tradition and it's founder. The green color
represents the landscapes and Cayey mountains. The black color
indicates antiquity, solemnity and seriousness. The shield is a
creation by Dr. J.J. Santa Pinter, associated professor of the
Colegio Universitario de Cayey.
