This symbolism is derived from iconography rather than classical heraldry; mediaeval royal seals portrayed a majesty on the obverse and the arms of the sovereign on the reverse. The sceptre, here shown to have six oval nodules, represented power, and the outstretched right hand justice; both of these were royal prerogatives. The old province of Meath is nearly coextensive with the present-day Diocese of Meath. The arms of Meath were apparently used at one time as the arms of Ireland: a majesty on a sable (black) background, the provincial arms being displayed on an azure (blue) field azure.The arms are still used by the Meath GAA, but the Meath county council has adopted a new design."@en }
