Origin/meaning

The two keys symbolise Saint Peter, the patron saint of the parish. The oak symbolizes an old wood, which would have given the name of "Bus" (like Bois, forest).

The fleur-de-lis is taken from the coat of arms of the Pelet family, former lords of the village, and can also refer to the coats of arms of the Somme and Picardy.
