there are different theories about the origin of the flag, the most romantic one says that about 800 - 900 aC, the count of Barcelona, who fought on the side of the French king was deadly wounded. In compensation for that, the French king gave him a coat of arms, that was the four fingers stained in the blood of the wound, printed on the golden shield of the count of Barcelona.. So i suppose the red represents blood, and yellow the gold :P
