The Gadsden Flag is one of the most iconic symbols of the American Revolution. Featuring a coiled rattlesnake on a yellow field with the bold warning ‘DONT TREAD ON ME,’ the flag represents vigilance, liberty, and readiness to defend against tyranny.
The design is attributed to Christopher Gadsden of South Carolina, who presented the flag in 1775 to the Continental Navy. The rattlesnake had already become a popular colonial symbol, famously used by Benjamin Franklin, signifying that while the colonies sought peace, they would strike decisively if provoked.
Widely flown by naval forces, militias, and later American patriots, the Gadsden Flag endures as a powerful emblem of individual liberty, resistance to oppression, and the revolutionary spirit that helped give birth to the United States.
