Description

Flag of the Ottoman Empire according to the Catalan Atlas c.1375. I am not 100% certain the flag looked exactly like this, but I am quite confident it did. The crescent-shaped devices in the quarters are stylized version of the en:Kayi en:Oghuz en:Tamgha of the Osmans. It is clear to see how this stylized bow became the familiar crescent.

WARNING: This image is highly speculative. The main source pointing to this design is the Catalan Atlas, which as a historical primary source cannot be considered a reliable reference, especially if it is the only source used. This image should not be added to articles without clearly indicating its speculative nature. Note that FOTW (where most of those flags on Commons are adapted from) is based on user contributions like Wikipedia, and hence not authoritative either.
