The FLAG In History.

It can hardly be doubted that flags;
or their equivalent, were used very
early in the worlds history. Among
the buried remnants of early races

objects which were apparently used
as ensigns. These are accepted as
evidence that the ancient Egyptian
soldiers were not without thelr
standards. The Assyrians and Jews
also carried something similar in de
