The Old Assyrian Flag

This flag was in use by the Assyrian American Federation (AAF) prior to 1975 when it dropped it for the current Assyrian flag. The old flag was designed originally by the Syriacs from Turkey (from Kharbut - Tur Abdin area) whom established the AAF early 1920s. They wanted the three stars to represent the Assyrian, Chaldean, and Syriac names of our nation. In 1975, the Assyrian American Federation which by then was compromised mainly from Assyrians of Hakkari and Urmia region decided to change the old flag to the current design of the Assyrian Flag.
