"The Austrian arms for Galicia and Lodomeria were: Azure, a fillet in chief (or a bar enhanced) gules between a crow sable in chief and three ancient crowns in base, according to Woodward's Treatise. The name "crow" corresponds to the bird named "halka" in Ruthenian and "kawka" in Polish. The crow is Galicia and the three crowns are for Lodomeria. The Duchy of Galicia & Lodomeria (Rus Halicko-Wolynska or Rus Halicko-Wlodzimierska) came from the union of Duchy of Galicia and Duchy of Volynia (Lodomeria) - which was called Rus Halicko-Wolynska or Rus Halicko-Wlodzimierska . Lodomeria is a latin for of Wlodzimierz (Wlodzimieria) the capital of Rus Wolynska."
