Associated since antiquity with military victories, the bird of Jupiter leaning on the thunderbolt became the emblem of the First Empire after having been that of imperial Rome. In the image of the signs of the Roman armies, Napoleon had an eagle, the traditional symbol of heraldry, placed at the top of the flagstaff of his regiments.
