[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] What you have there is a German coat of Arms. And is says "Baltasar of Tarsus" Tarsus is in Turkey however a German coats of Arms is in no way trying to represent Islam And Balthasar of the "The Three Magi", That is a biblical reference. Balthasaris traditionally referred to as the King of Arabia and gave the gift of myrrh to Jesus. This has nothing to do with Islam your other reference talks about how the symbol jumps from one culture to another starting with an Egyptian Hieroglyph but was a more common symbol in Mesopotamia. Then Byzantines, then Persians [QUOTE] When Muslim Arabs conquered Persia in the seventh century, Sassanian coin designs were only preserved. The reformist caliph Abd al-Malik (r. 685-705 AD) would eventually replace the fire altar scene with Arabic, but the less offensive stars and crescents remained. Historians differ on the influence these coins had on symbol’s popularity with Muslims. Certainly the symbol received decades of exposure and was agreeable with later aniconism. The symbol later appears, perhaps independently, in Muslim art. The question now is how the star and crescent emblem progressed from the margins of early Muslim coins to the flag of the Ottoman Empire? While Sassanian-style coins continued to spread into the Abbasid period, the symbol somewhat disappears until the early 14th century. From this time survives an illustration of the Battle of Yarmouk (636 AD) showing Muslim combatants under a star and crescent flag. By the 16th century the star and crescent was popular among Ottoman naval flags and also adorned the flags of the empire’s easternmost influence: the Aceh Sultanate in Indonesia. In the west, Bosnia also used the emblem at this time.
