Cast bronze plaque of a Moors head with a bandana mounted on a shield background. This is the heraldic symbol of the French island of Corsica in the Mediterranean Sea. It's origins are slightly gruesome. According to legend, it originates from the 13th century when a young Corsican woman named Diana was captured by Moorish slavers who planned to sell her to the slave market of Granada in Spain. Her fiancé Pablo managed to free her and a battle ensued between Corsicans and Moors, during which the Moorish leader Mansour Ben Ismaïl was beheaded. His severed head then became the symbol of Corsica in remembrance of the event. The motif can be found all over the island, on flags and on buildings.
