Comments:
The city promotes urban development with the slogan: Ashibetsu, the village where the stars fall (a motto that also appears in the city’s emblem - 星の降る里 あしべつ).
This is the reason for the series of caps with constellations on them.

The current lid, symbolizes the constellation Orion, with the image of the hunter Orion from Greek mythology, and on it central stars belonging to the group Beetlejuice, Rigel and Orion’s belt
