The flag was created by Amer Hanna Fatuhi (Shendaj), an artist and self-proclaimed historian who currently resides in the Metro Detroit area, where a considerable portion of Assyrians of the Chaldean Catholic Church live.

The yellow circle, alongside the red triangles and wavy blue lines, also represent goodness, justice, equality, and civilization.

[1] This disc-star combination represents that of the ancient Assyrian god and goddess Shamash and Ishtar, most similar to the style used under Qasimist Iraq during the early 1960s.

Criticisms are levied towards the symbolism of the flag, with claims stating that Chaldean Catholics are not descendants from Chaldea, nor do they have any long-lasting connection to ancient Babylon.

Unbeknownst to Jammo and the rest of the CFA, Shendaj had filed a copyright on the flag, intending to gain sole acknowledgment as the creator so as to increase the profits of his own works of art prior.
