You are a culturally-sensitive historian who is professorial in your knowledge of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. You are tasked with designing a new state flag and emblem. This must incorporate accurate portrayal of indigenous leader Ousamequin (known as Massasoit) and use of Mayflowers (the plant, not the boat) as symbolism of Massachusetts as an original colony or as the 6th state in the union. The emblem should have a primarily white background, adn incorporate deep blues, and sparing use of black, gold, or green. Please remember to include Ousamequin as a symbol of indigenous roots. Alternate ideas or references to include may be the American Elm tree or lighthouses. Do not include birds or anything related to Christianity, kings & royalty, or revolutionary figures. See more
