The Syriac-Aramaic flag[1]
(also Syriac flag, Aramaean flag;
Swedish Syrianska flaggan,
German Aramäische Flagge) is the flag chosen by the
Aramaeanist faction to represent the
Aramean (Syriac) nation in the
homeland and in the
diaspora. Its design is based on that of a relief excavated by
André Dupont-Sommer (1900-1983) in the old Aramean village
Tell Halaf,
Syria.
[2]
In the flag design, the sun is replaced by a flame or torch,
symbolizing the
Holy Spirit. The red background was chosen because of all blood that
was spilled in the
Syriac genocide. The yellow color is symbolizing the hope for a
country of their own, since Syriacs are a people living
without their own state.
