[edit] Info on flag of Mali Empire

Hi, Menah. I ran across some info that's very exciting regarding the flag of the Mali Empire. According to this (http://books.google.com/books?id=HwV2a-lPB70C&printsec=frontcover&dq=General+History+of+Africa#PPA60,M1) on page 60, an eyewitness describes the colors (flag/standard) of Mansa Musa as "yellow on a red ground". I wish the guy would have said what was yellow. Maybe it was a yellow a triangle as shown on that map you mentioned in the Mali Empire talk page. Regardless, we know the ground or field was red. i'll post this on the talk page too. holla back. Scott Free (talk) 07:39, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
