Rhode Island Flags in Different Languages & Anchors

The Normal Achor, but in Basque

 
 The Rhode Island flag is very distinct, but anchors have come in many shapes before the cross design was put into fashion.  In honor of ancient anchors found along the diverse coastlines of the world, it is possible to make thematic Rhode Island Flags.

The first one is the an Anchor type found in the Red Sea. أمل is the Arabic word for hope.


 The round doughnut type of anchor was found in ancient China.希望 is Chinese for hope.

A popular anchor found across the Greek Isles is the trapezoid types. ελπίδα is Greek for Hope.
 An anchor found off the coast of Israel had a triangular/square shape.  The Hebrew for for hope is תקווה
Here is one style of ancient Viking anchor with a heavy rock tied to the center.  Hope is written in Runes to read as Hope.


Here is a mish-mash Greek-Rhodes flag.  It uses the official design of Rhodes and adds it US Rhode Island style of flag.
