Flag of Mapuche - Pint Glass 16oz

The Flag of Mapuche refers to the official banner representing the cultural identity and territorial claims of the indigenous Mapuche people, primarily residing in south-central Chile and southwestern Argentina. The flag, adopted in various forms since the late 19th century, usually consists of three vertical bands with the colors red (representing the blood shed during their struggles), white (signifying peace and unity), and black (symbolizing the earth from which life springs). The top band is typically smaller than the other two to symbolize the ongoing marginalization and oppression faced by the Mapuche nation. The flag may also include additional elements like a green diagonal band representing hope, or the Andean condor in flight, embodying freedom and strength. It serves as a powerful reminder of their rich heritage and ongoing efforts for self-determination and recognition of ancestral lands.
