sami flag

The Sami flag is the flag of the Sami people. It was officially recognized in 1986 by the Nordic Sami Conference (Nordiska Samekonferensen) to be used in Sami contexts. It was designed by Astrid Bhl from Skibotn in Troms, Norway. The four colors of the Sami flag (red, blue, green and yellow) are the colours of gakti, the traditional Sami costume. The circle is intended to symbolise both the moon and the sun, the blue part representing the moon and the red part the sun.
