Description: A nautical flag of Mamluk Egypt (claimed as being from a 19th-century source). This is doubtful. Flaggen aller seefahrenden Nationen as originally published c. 1750/60 does not show such a flag.[1] It is also intended as showing flags in then-current use. Mamluk rule in Egypt ended in 1517. There is no "Mamluk" flag in the 1700s edition of Flaggen aller seefahrenden Nationen.
