Description of the flag

It's always of interest to me the shade of "маренового", so finally I found on https://vk.com/topic-38050236_26375331?offset=0 some interesting description on RGB 179,18,53. This is the new flag which compares with the photos.

In the number 2/2001 of Alkukoti I found an interesting map chart [alk01] with the living areas and flags of the different Finno-Ugric peoples. It shows a simple white-red-black triband for the Erza Mordovians (one of the two related Mordovian tribes; the other one is Moksha).
