This Area was established in 1930. Fishing is the mainstay of
the economy.

In the new volume of Vexilologie (120)
[vex], there is an article by
Mikhail Revnivtsev [rev01]
about some Russian regional flags is published. New data on
Koryak Autonomous District: symbols adopted 1999 (June 6).
The flag colors are light blue and white, and the reindeer
(not deer) head is red (not marroon!) and the flag ratio
is 2:3. [Unlike what is shown in
[mir00].]

This flag looks good, quite good indeed. It’s probably the first time we
gain, vexillographically speaking, when replacing an image from the Aspirant
chart [eba94] with an official flag. Though
their Koryak flag didn’t look bad either…

The Koryak have been reported as flying a white flag with a
green stripe at the bottom. On the white stripe is a golden sun; oddly
enough this is visually identical with the sun device on the flag of
Namibia.

This flag is listed under number 132 at the chart Flags
of Aspirant Peoples [eba94] as:
«Chav’ Chu”v [Koryakia] (Koryaks) - Kamchatka».
