Confederate Artillery Battle Flag – 38×38 Inch Square “Southern Cross” | Double Nylon Embroidered
Authentic square battle flag used by Confederate artillery units, born out of battlefield necessity after the First Battle of Manassas (Bull Run). Ordered by General P.G.T. Beauregard to resolve confusion with Union flags, the “Southern Cross” in square format became the iconic standard of the Army of Northern Virginia.
This version features the correct white border trim, exact 38″x38″ dimensions, and fully embroidered stars and cross — a true field reproduction, not a decorative variant.
