Description of the Flag

The flag is a recreation, but backed by quite solid research based on Wikipedia's article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afridi and Encyclopaedia Iranica: http://www.iranica.com/articles/search/keywords:Afridi.

There are more of the tribal flags and they are a bit too similar, which makes me a little suspicious. Anyway, I report them, real or fake:
