  1. Gore
    In heraldry, a gore is one of the abatements. It is made of two curved lines, meeting in an acute angle in the fesse point. It is usually on the sinister side, and of the tincture called tenne. The gore is traditionally held to denote a coward, and like the other abatements it is a modern (that is post Mediaeval) fancy and not actually used.
