Belgrano, who was also the initiator of the creation of the national flag, created its other variant while commanding the Army of the North.

Two Army of the North flags were hidden in the church in Santiago de Macha after the lost Battle of Ayohuma and were found on 16 October 1883.

Fray Joaquín Masian, custodian of the Convent of St. Francis, noted in the archives that a new flag had been made for the school.

[4] In 1995, Alfredo Guido Linares, a member of parliament for the Republican Force (the party to which Antonio Bussi, who was elected governor shortly afterwards, also belonged), proposed a project inspired by the idea of Dr. Miguel Carrillo Bascary to restore the 1814 flag.

A design was developed that reflects the current appearance of the national flag, i.e. the proportions of 5:8 and the light shade of blue stripes.
