Swaziland, around 1894

Swaziland, around 1894

In 1894 a distinct Swazi flag was flown, with eleven alternating equal dark and light blue stripes and a Swazi shield, also placed vertically, in the centre. The National Museum has a reconstruction of this flag with the caption “This flag was flown in 1894 when Swaziland had a Triumvirate Government made up of Swazi, Boer and British People. Theophilus Shepstone represented Swaziland. The flag is a rough illustration based on general descriptions, as there are no photographs or drawings of the original”.
