Archeological and ethnographic findings indicate that Basque [people] evolved from Cro-Magnon in this area over a period dating from about 40,000 years ago until distinct features were acquired approximately 7,000 years ago. Two thousand years later the sheep, not native to these lands, was introduced and horse and cattle farming came into being. These circumstances made it necessary for the people to travel periodically and cultural contacts were thus made. The Basque banner was made in 1894 by Sabino Arana. The name of the banner is ikurrina. In spite of the fact that the importance of this word is a banner, it is really used just for the Basque banner; Basque individuals like to use the Spanish word Bandera for different banners.
The ikurrina was initially made just for Bizkaia (the area of Euskadi), however, it turned out to be extremely well-known and the Basque localities acknowledged it as the banner for all of Euskadi. First the Basque Nationalist Party used it. In 1936, the Basque Autonomous Government was made and the ikurrina was proclaimed, by law, the Basque banner.
After the Spanish war, the dictatorship announced the ikurrina illicit. Amid the second World War, there was a Basque detachment in the French free armed force, and the ikurrina of the unit was enhanced. After the last Spanish autocracy, and with the endorsement of the Basque self-sufficiency, the ikurrina was pronounced again by law as the official Basque banner.
In the Basque-French nation, it has dependably been permitted and after World War II it was formally used as a part of the town lobbies together with the French banner. Generally, the banner of Bizkaia was red. At the point when Sabino Arana made the ikurrina, he needed to give it the significance Bizkaia, autonomy, and God, so the red shade of the field means Bizkaia or Euskadi, the green St. Andrew's cross stands for the freedom, of the Basque Country. It is green since it likewise symbolizes the oak tree of Gernika, the image of Basque flexibility. The white cross is for God.
In the Middles Ages (year 867), there was a battle between the Basques and the Spaniards in a place called Padura. This battle was on St. Andrew's day. The stones of the place were stained with blood and since that day, that place has been called Arrigorriaga (Place of red stones).
It is not clear if this fight is recorded or unbelievable, however, the St. Andrew's cross has regularly been used as a part of Basque banners, similar to those of the Consulate of Bilbao, The Naval banner of Biscay, and in some Carlists banners amid the Carlists wars.
