Falko Schmidt, 3 July 2007
The canton was formed on 26 May 1981. Above, we show the flag
after the PDF file available on the website
of the Association of Ecuadorian Municipalities.
The original drawing shows a light blue surface in the upper blue
stripe, that Jens has interpreted as a disk (which makes sense in
the absence of any other source).
Pimampiro has now an official
website: Here the flag
is shown without the disk but with a plain light blue stripe.
It could be that the light blue surface was indeed a colouring
artefact in the drawing. While the coat of arms is described in
great detail, there is unfortunately nothing about the flag.
Pimampiro organized in 2008 the Fifth Inter Cantonal Sportive
Games ("Pimampiro 2008"). The mascot of the games,
"El Tomatito", is represented "holding in his left
hand a flag of the canton of Pimampiro".
The flag is shown as *horizontally* divided blue-yellow- greenas
seen here.
