Banners and Flags

STENDARDI e BANDIERE

Si sa, la Feluca è la nostra Bandiera e noi ci riconosciamo in Essa. Però ci dividiamo in tante Famiglie che noi chiamiamo "Ordini".

Il post sugli Ordini, come potete vedere, è il più cliccato ed il più seguito - partecipato. Tutti sappiamo che gli Ordini si caratterizzano per le proprie insegne esterne che aiutano a riconoscerci ed a farci riconoscere.

The sign is surely the most classic plaque. It is delivered at the time of the smatricolazione Goliarda which holds as one of the most precious things (after the felucca).

But we all know that the flag identifying the membership and stated, in ancient times, the position of the commander on the battlefield.

Even our orders are (almost) always have a cloth identifier that follows the Head of Order in its official releases, such as opening of the academic leaders of the Order or dinner during the weekday. It is usually not a real flag as a banner, a cloth square that is attached to a rod through a small cross bar. This allows to be seen even in the absence of wind and closed. The banner will be given the insignia of the order.

I managed to find some photos of the banners that I propose.
