History

Hibernia can be seen as Irelands version of allegorical figures such as Britannia and Lady Liberty. Visually what sets her apart from these other figures is that she wields a harp, which is a distinctly Irish image. A central heraldic symbol of Ireland, the harp has represented Irish sovereignty since roughly the 13^th century. As for the name Hibernia, it is simply the Latin word for Ireland originally used by the Roman historian Tacitus.
