Origin/meaning

The chief triple-gabled symbolises building. The Key is the proverbial Key to the Home. The Supporters are African Hornbills. The Habit of these Birds is for the Male to mason the Female into nest in a hollow three trunk, for protection, leaving only a hole big enough to feed her, until she has hatched and raised their chicks.
