Description of the flag

According to Mikhail Revnivtsev’s paper in Vexilologie 104: 1985-1986 (June 1997) [rev97], the horizontal stripes are light blue - white - dark blue (27:34:27); the kumalan (red-white ceremonial carpet) has eight “rays”; the flag ratio is 2:3. The colors of the flag symbolize polar days and nights, the kumalan (which itself stands for Sun) is a symbol of Evenki culture. The flag has been approved by the Suglan, the district assembly, on March 23rd, 1995 (decree Nº 83-3). The gaps between kumalan and the blue stripes’ margins seem to be identical to the width of the outer margin of the kumalan, but this measure is not given.
Jan Zrzavy, 10 Mar 2002

The author of the evenkian flag is an artist, Sergei Salatkin (Сергей Салаткин).
Victor Lomantsov, 10 Mar 2002

According to Jiri Tenora [jtn02], the emblem in the middle of the Evenkia flag is a sun symbol.
Ivan Sache, 18 Apr 2002

Distance from the egde of the kumalan is unstated (as also its diameter) but Jan Zrzavy says it seems to be identical to the kumalan’s outer ring thickness.
