The Shield is the civic symbol of the Municipality of Riberalta. It has the
following descriptions and characters:
The Shield will carry the Municipality
Flag on the upper part with symmetrical half-moon side folds crowning the
symbol. A top horizontal stripe with the description "RIBERALTA" in gold letters
on a bright red background.
It will be divided into four quarters:
The
Upper Left quarter will carry a bow and a warrior arrow, as a symbol alluding
to the untamed ethnic groups of the Bolivian Amazon region, a symbol embedded in
a red flag that evokes the blood shed by women and men of the region, in defense
of the integrity and national sovereignty.
Superior Right quarter
shows the almond tree in its fullness, preceded by a rubber beginning in the
process of smoking, on a burning buyon. All this on a background of warm blue
sky and fertile land.
The symbolism of this barracks expresses the wealth of
the plant kingdom, our immeasurable airspace, fundamental pillars of our
regional economy.
The Lower Left quarter shows the majesty of the confluence
of the two colossal rivers: "Beni" and "Madre de Dios", on whose right bank
surrounded by immense forest, the city of Riberalta sits, reflecting the
potential of our water resources , a natural means of communication, an
innumerable source of wealth and regional geographic power.
The Lower Right
quarter has a young jaguar lurking in the center, with its jaws open, on a
red-lit pavilion, symbolizing the wealth of our fauna, the strength, courage and
rebellion of the brave Riberalteñas and Riberalteños.
At the foot of the
Shield are two large alligators in an attitude of defense, symbolizing vigilance
for the preservation of our ecological wealth.
