Flagpole History Today

By Ronny Rodgers


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.

From the era of sailing vessels onwards, it has been customary (and later a legal requirement) for ships to carry flags designating their nationality; these flags eventually evolved into the national flags and maritime flags of today. Flags also became the preferred means of communications at sea, resulting in various systems of flag signals; see, International maritime signal flags.

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. Early flagpoles were secured with numerous layers of creature fat to make them weatherproof before being planted in the ground. Since the posts were planted straightforwardly in the earth, they tended to decay at the base. Still, very much built wooden posts were excellent antiques that could stay practical for upwards of 50 years.

There is a barrage of cheap and Flagpoles being imported and sold, that do not comply with the statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Imported flagpoles are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flagpoles made by American manufacturers. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flags and flagpoles designs offered a special edition of flagpoles to comfort your environment with the genius American brand flagpoles that stay for centuries to memorize the history of flagpole production for the future.
