FLAG OF SULU *
This flag , used by moros of Sulu presents some typical elements of the battle flags of the Sultanate , like the five stars and the crossed kris and barung but has been profesionally made, not homemade.
We think it is made after 1916 for his modern style.
The flag is located in U.S.A., Chapel of St. Cornelius the Centurion , Governor's Island, New York. |
