The Great Seal

Questions always come around, "What does the Great Seal of the Muscogee Nation symbolize?" Why the different color of clouds, why the stalk of wheat, why the plow and why is this the seal of the Nation it represents? Who designed it? Who wanted it? Even who owns it? Well here we try to answer some of those questions and understand how the Seal came to represent the fourth largest Native American Tribe in the United States. Thanks for watching. MVTO!!!

Thank you for posting this video! I often wondered what our symbol/seal actually meant. I’ve been told many stories…nothing like this video says. Very interesting MVTO!

Thanks for this, it's important. Did the Nation have a flag prior to Christianity?

[@j.c.eaglesmith4259]

This seal/flag does not project anything representing indigenous pride, hence could be the seal/flag for copious non-Native corporations.
Shame that the "Great Seal" does not include any great symbols of Muskokee traditions aside from assimilation.

@1:22 economic impact of 1 billion annually, but natives still paying federal taxes let's get that changed one day.

Does anyone notice that this flag/seal when compared to those of other Natives is uniquely unrecognizeable as Indidenous Native American???
A younger decolonized & more traditional leadership could surely create & adopt a far more appropriare seal/flag representing the rich heritage of a great people over the sad imagry of periodic & damaging acculturation.

A sad symbol of assimilation and entrenchment in continued colonial identification produced in less independent times.
PERHAPS a replacement is long overdue?
