Conmemoran con bandera...
First flown: 4 March 2022
The flag was seen for the first time, at least for general public, on 4 March 2022, in the city of Chihuahua during the celebrations for the 369th anniversary of the dead of Tarahumara warrior Gabriel "The Axer" Teporaca. Representative of the Apache nation Lucas Delgado explained the meaning of the flag in which the cross has different-length arms standing for man a woman and their ability to create life; the zig-zag ring recalls the geography of the Tarahumara living-place. The whole circular achievement placed above the Tarahumara realm, represented by the lines.
