    Symbolism on the Chief's arms

    I'm thinking about interesting content for the Clan Donald Southern Ontario newsletter. One thing I'm considering is explaining how the symbols on the various Arms of the Chiefs of Clan Donald correspond to our history.

    I see many resourses that explain the arms, but is there any source out there that interprets their meaning?

    I know some intitively like the salmon and the Highland Galley, but I'd love to use the Heraldry of our Chiefs as a teaching tool of our Clan's exploits and history. Any expert opinions or guidance would be most appreciated.

    Slàinte,

    Nathan
