The emblem is shaped like a flying bird representing harmony, progress and

indigo producing prefecture. Adopted 1966-03-16.

The prefecture emblem was adopted on Mar 18th 1966 by Notice No 166 but there
is no flag law. The blue flag has a yellow prefecture emblem in the center and
kanji name in white at the bottom part.
