Summary
[edit]The factual accuracy of this flag is disputed. This image is somewhat speculative. It contains four "fire steels", which are corrupted Greek letters Beta. The "fire steels" are appear only in western armorials, but not in portolan charts, where the Greek letters Beta are always presented in their original form. In the Byzantine Empire, this corrupted form of Greek letters "fire steels" could not be used and known. This flag is therefore a western interpretation of the Byzantine flag. |
WARNING: This flag is a unique combination of the Byzantine and the Genoese flags, hence it is not the "Byzantine flag". Use either File:Byzantine imperial flag, 14th century, square.svg or File:Byzantine imperial flag, 14th century.svg for the latter. |
