The maroon symbol is the "Abeng" a horn used by the Maroons to communicate over long distances. During the maroon Wars of 1655-1738, and 1796 these horns were used to warn the community of the pending attacks by English troops. They communicated troop size, direction they were travelling and armour carried. This information gave the Maroons a six hour warning to plan , organize and execute ambushes on the soldiers.
