Translated from <www.timbiocauca.gov.co>:
The flag of Timbío is created by decree #11 of Dicember 7, 1971
of the Municipal Council. It is composed of three vertical
colours. The colours are according to the Royal Certificate that
was issued in Valladolid (Spain) in November 10, 1558 by Philip
II, King of Spain to the "Big Province of Cauca" in
these times.
The colors are dark green on the hoist side which means honesty,
friendship and courtesy as well the fields and the abundance. It
is also means that Timbío is a big fomenter of the agriculture
and the cattle ranch. White means the good faith and the joy of
Timbío. The laurel crown in the center is for the valour and
glory of the sons in the battle fields, eagers of liberty. Yellow
means nobility, wealth, power and prosperity.
