I received today another departamental flag of Guatemala: the
flag of Solola.
The flag is a vertical triband of green-yellow-green. The shield
of the capital is included in the central band.
Jaume Olle' , 24 December 1997
Communication by Mr Pedro Iboy Chiroy, Mayor of the
Municipal Corporation of the Department of Solola, 9 October
1997:
As in the case of several Latin American countries the flag of
the department of Solola carries in the center the coat of arms
of the capital. This seems to be due to the fact that the
Municipal Corporation of the city has jurisdiction on all the
department.
Ratio (according to the drawing made by computer and transmitted
to me) c. 8:21

Detail of the SEAL that figure in the flag (the departmental
coat of arms and that of the Municipality are similar but rounded
and multicolored). The drawing has as backgound a mountain and
lake, continuing with vast fields with vegetation and little
houses, and on the foreground a Guatemalan peasant woman on
cultivated land.
