About the the flag

In the new volume of Vexilologie (120) [vex], there is an article by Mikhail Revnivtsev [rev01] about some Russian regional flags is published. New data on Koryak Autonomous District: symbols adopted 1999 (June 6). The flag colors are light blue and white, and the reindeer (not deer) head is red (not marroon!) and the flag ratio is 2:3. [Unlike what is shown in [r9u00].]

This flag looks good, quite good indeed. It’s probably the first time we gain, vexillographically speaking, when replacing an image from the Aspirant chart [eba94] with an official flag.

The Koryak have been reported as flying a white flag with a green stripe at the bottom. On the white stripe is a golden sun; oddly enough this is visually identical with the sun device on the flag of Namibia.
Stuart Notholt, 26 Sep 1995

This flag is listed under number 132 at the chart Flags of Aspirant Peoples [eba94] as: «Chav’ Chu”v [Koryakia] (Koryaks) - Kamchatka».
