The arms od Carrara show a wheel. The wheel most likely is chosen as a symbol for the city, due to the transport of marble from the quarries in the mountains to the sea. This was done for ages by chariots. The letters in the wheel form the motto "Fortitude mea in rota" meaning, "My strength is in the wheel". | The arms od Carrara show a wheel.
