A second theory is that the head refers to the people that are still not Christian, and have not seen the light, i.e. shown as black. This may refer to the missionary activity of the bishops in their Eastern possessions in what is now Austria and Slovenia.

It is also speculated that these theories are combined : Bishop Ermicho wanted to show that he is under the King alone, that he acts as a missionary and at the same time it was used to protect his treasure. Probably we will never find out the actual reason for using the Moor.

The colours have historically been with a golden shield, but after the renaming and move from Freising to München in 1818 the arms were generally seen in the colours of [[München]], silver and black. Only in 2013 the Archdiocese reverted to the historical colours. The Archbishops already reverted tp the historical colours in the early 20th century.

After 1803 when the wordly possessions of the different ecclesiastical rulers (bishops, abbeys..) were confiscated by the Bavarian State (secularisation) it was suggested to replace the arms with the Moor, as these also referred to the territories held by the bishops. Several new designs from 1821 focussed on the patron saints of the diocese. St. Mary and St. Corbinian, see image below, but were never approved or adopted.
