The Twelve Tribes of Judah are more properly called the Twelve Tribes of Israel (since they are all descended from Israel, not Judah). Each of the Tribes has its own symbol, relating to its history. Examples include the Lion as the symbol of Judah, the Sailboat as the symbol of Zebulun, the Tree as the symbol of Asher, and the Wolf as the symbol of Benjamin.
The most common symbol representing all twelve tribes is the breastplate of the High Priest adorned with twelve semi-precious and precious stones representing the twelve tribes. This is called Avnei Ha-Khoshan in Hebrew. A link to an image of this is provided.

Ten of the Israelite tribes revolted and formed a new kingdom called Israel; while the two southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin remained loyal to the family of King David. The two nations were eventually reunited, after both Judah and Israel had been defeated by their enemies (Babylon & Assyria) and carried away into slavery.
