Crescents

Gas Lantern, Charleston, SC  © Doug Hickok  All Rights Reserved



A gas lantern sits atop a gate adorned with crescent moons,
a key symbol on the South Carolina state flag.
 The symbol comes from little crescents worn on the caps
 of the Revolutionary soldiers who defended Charleston in 1776.
