Znamierowski, 'The World Encyclopedia of Flagś, 1999, shows
several interesting flags of the Port Cities of northern Europe.
These are derived from gonfanons, originally red in color. The flags,
in a banner form, were flown from the stern of the vessels, the mast carrying
the gonfanon of the colors. The flag of Elbląg (Elbing) dates from the
14th century.
