Summary
DescriptionEscudo mazatlan.jpg
Español: El “todo” del campo del escudo se construye con el cuarto cuartel del Escudo Oficial del Estado de Sinaloa y que corresponde a la ciudad de Mazatlán: dicho cuartel está basado en la etimología de la palabra que da su nombre al lugar de Mazatlán, que en la lengua náhuatl significa lugar de venados; aparece en el mismo una cabeza de venado de perfil, inspirado en un dibujo indígena; las formas que salen de los belfos del animal aluden al bramido del mismo, el ojo, de verde bruñido, se apoya en la leyenda que sobre el lugar de venados afirma que había una hermosa corza parda que tenía los ojos verdes y se conocen con el nombre de Dos Hermanas, el ancla hace referencia al puerto y un homenaje a los marinos que lo descubrieron y le pusieron por nombre San Juan Bautista de Mazatlán, en el siglo XVI.
