The Royal Lao flag is a three headed elephant referred to as an Erawan. The three headed elephant actually had the layered "umbrella" looking object over it's heads as opposed to one on either side. I may be fuzzy in my memory but that is what I recall. This depiction almost looks Hindu in nature.
Jim Spears, 07 September 1999


The royal flag of Laos was red with a large centered coat-of-arms covering most of the flag.
