At the top of our crest is the Mute
Swan, its beauty speaking volumes
and its discernment a reflection
of the storied tradition of Zulu
leadership - astute, compelling
and unwavering.

The African ebony tree pays
homage to the awe-inspiring
beauty of the continent of
our heritage.

"Isibindi" means "courage"
in the lanquage of Zulu.

The ancient Zulu axe, hewn in the
time of Shaka Zulu, pairs shrewd
thought with the power to stand
firm in the name of protecting land,
people, and spirit.

At the center of the crest is the
lion. Living in a pride, dedicated
to family, he is revered throughout
the world for his enviable strength
and courage.

The color green reminds us
of the rich and abundant
resources of Africa.
