The usage of flags and flagpoles spread from India and China, where they were almost certainly invented, to neighboring Burma, Siam, and southeastern Asia. The Persians used Derafsh Kaviani as the flag, at the time of Achaemenian dynasty at 550-330 B.C.
Though not always, flags could identify individual leaders: in Europe, monarchs and knights; in Japan, the samurai; in China, the generals under the imperial army; and in Mexico, the Aztec alliances.
Originally, the standards of the Roman legions were not flags, but symbols such as the eagle of Augustus Caesar's Xth legion; this graphic of the eagle would be placed on a staff for the standard-bearer to hold up during battle. But a military unit from Dacia had for a standard a dragon with a flexible tail which would move in the wind; the legions copied this, and eventually all the legions had physically flexible standards-the modern-day flag.
Banners have rich histories. The banner posts or as we call them flagpoles, on which they fly have a history which offers looks into changes in innovation and society. Early banner shafts were just trees chose for their relative straightness that was chopped down, stripped of bark and branches, and after that replanted in the ground with a banner joined at the top.
Early banner shafts were just trees chose for their relative straightness that was chopped down, stripped of bark and branches, and after that replanted in the ground with a banner joined at the top. More refined wooden posts were made with spruce or pine trees, which normally become straighter than hardwood trees. These trees were stripped of bark and branches and after that completely smoothed down with draw blades and planes.
They were covered with multiple coats of animal fat to make them weatherproof before being planted in the ground. Because the poles were planted directly in the dirt, they tended to rot at the base. Still, well-constructed wooden poles were beautiful artifacts that could remain functional for as many as 50 years. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag and flagpole designs technologies created a special edition of flagpoles and flags to memorize the history of flagpole production for the future.
