    The Lion Rampant

    The lion has been used as a heraldic symbol by Scottish King's for many centuries. William, King of Scot's (1165-1214) was know as "The Lion" when he decided that the lion would be used on his own Coat of Arm's. The Scottish Lion Rampant has always been shown as standing erect on it's hind legs with it's forelegs extended and was alway's shown on the King's shield. It has been suggested that the King's of Scotland kept a real lion when they were in residence at Edinburgh and Stirling castles. Both of these castles have a building inside them named "The Lion's Den"
