stylized hiragana I い of Isezaki in shape of comma-shaped bead used as an accessory in ancient Japan which represents harmony and development.
Nozomi Kariyasu, 19 November 2005

The emblem and flag are described in notice number 66. The stylised hiragana i い forms an outline of the well known "yin-yang" (in Japanese "inyou") symbol, expressing harmony of the citizens and the city's development.

Azuma 東村 means Eastern Village. Now they use the kanji of 東 for Azuma however it seems that the word Azuma originated from a legend of Yamato Takeru legendary prince born in year 72.
He was sent by Emperor to crush the great rebellion in eastern land whose people disobeyed the imperial court and on way back from eastern land he stayed in presently Gunma and commemorated his late wife. He said "Oh my wife = Azuma haya" in ancient Japanese. Azuma can write as 吾妻 = "my wife" and we can find the municipal name in Nagasaki Prefecture.
