Villa Ortega

If I understood this
page right, there is a village flag for Villa Ortega, a locality in the
Comune of Coihaique, in the Province of Coihaique,
in the Region of Aysen, Chile.

The flag is rectangular, approx. 5:8, blue over aquamarine (?) horizontal,
with a thin counterchanged stripe over all (approx. specs: (19+1+1+19):64).
On the white area, three symbols side-by-side:
- near the hoist a red half disc (showing NW and NE quadrants), off set
to the bottom of the stripe, perhaps standing from setting sun;
- centrally, off set to the top of the stripe, a dark yellow shape similar
to an “eastern crown” with five stems, but probapbly standing
for aurora australis (“southern lights”?);
- on the fly, a dark brown outline of a human hand, with thumb turned to
the hoist (i.e., either a right hand seen dorsally, or a left hand seen
ventrally).
-
On the lower fly, ruining it all, the lettering "Villa Ortega" set in a sans
serif face. All this assuming that a flat flag image showing the obverse is at
the official
webpage.
