Editing Fet, Norway (section)

==General information==
===Name===
The name ([[Old Norse]]: ''Fit'') was first recorded in 1321 (''a Fit''). The word ''fit'' means 'vigorous [[meadow]]'.

===Coat-of-arms===
The [[Coat of arms|coat-of-arms]] is from modern times. They were granted on 19 December 1986. The arms show a [[Peavey (tool)|logging hook]], which was used in the area to haul the logs cut in the surrounding [[forest]]s. The [[log driving|logs were transported]] over the streams and lakes to the [[sawmill]]s. The people used long poles with hooks to haul the logs. The colours of the arms are green and silver because the name is derived from an old word describing a field (green) near a lake (silver).<ref>{{cite web|author=Norske Kommunevåpen|date=1990|title=Nye kommunevåbener i Norden|url=http://www.ngw.nl/int/nor/f/fet.htm|access-date=2008-12-18}}</ref>
