Conceived by General Manuel Belgrano during the Argentine War of Independence. The flag was first not approved of by the First Triumvirate, but was later approved by the Asamblea del Año XIII to use the flag as a war flag. The Congress of Tucumán finally designated the flag as the national flag in 1816. The yellow Sun of May was added 2 years later, according to Diego Abad de Santillán, to represent the Inca god of the sun, Inti. There are 2 versions of the flag; the Official Ceremonial Flag, Bandera Oficial de Ceremonia, featuring the sun and the Ornamental Flag, Bandera de Ornato. Both flags are equally considered the national flag, except when on the same pole; flag with seal must always be on top. The flag originally made by Belgrano was a horizontal bicolor flag with white on top and sky blue on bottom. Later found in a chapel near the village of Macha, two flags with similar color and design were found hidden. Now called the “flags of Macha” it is believed that these were Belgrano’s first flags that he had hidden away from the enemy.
