Seal of the Supreme Court of Ohio – Columbus

The engraved seal of the Supreme Court of Ohio, as it appears at the Thomas J. Moyer Ohio Judicial Center, in Columbus. The seal is also that of the State of Ohio. It depicts the sun rising over Mount Logan and the Scioto River, as seen from the estate of the Adena Mansion in Chillicothe. Chillicothe is the site of the State’s first capitol, when it was part of the Northwest Territory. The seal also displays a cluster of 17 arrows and next to it a sheaf of wheat of the same shape. The thirteen rays of light coming from the sunrise, represent America’s original 13 colonies.

Adena Mansion is also where the first earthen mound of the Native American Adena culture was found, and thus became the namesake of the culture itself.
