The arms are also called the "balzana" and it has a legendary origin. The legends tells that Siena was founded by the two sons of Remo (one of the brothers who were nursed by the capitoline she-wolf) who had escaped from Rome riding two horses. One of them was white and the other black and for this reason the "balzana" has these colours. Also the name of the city is connected with this legend. In fact Senio was the name of one of the Remo's sons.
