  4. A coat of arms is a symbol or collection of symbols, usually represented on a shield, that indicates the traits of a particular family. It is part of a practice called heraldry, which includes researching and describing traits of coats of arms, and recording them for future reference. Historically, the coat of arms is a European tradition that was often used in several different ways, but one of its most common uses was on the shield of knights. The symbols displayed on the shield would help the knights distinguish themselves from their enemies.
