Sažetak
This article elaborates (musicologically, culturally and historically) six flags of the Croatian "Sokol" (youth sports societies) in Slavonia from the holdings of Croatian historical museum in Zagreb. These are: Flag of Croatian "Sokol" Osijek Donji grad, Flag of equestrian "Sokol" Osijek, Flag of Croatian "Sokol" Dakovo, Flag of Croatian country "Sokol" Beravci, Flag of Croatian "Sokol" Nijemci and Flag of Croatian "Sokol" Brezine.
In the introduction the article gives a short survey of the activities of "Sokol" movement during for periods: 1) period from the establishment of the first "Sokol" societies in the eighties of 19th century to the breakdown of Austro-Hungarian Monarchy in 1918.; 2) period of uniting of Croatian and Serbian "Sokol" societies upon unitarianist principle - the idea of one nation with three origins; 3) period of revival of Croatian "Sokol" 1922-1924; 4) period of intensive activity to abolition in 1929. It should be stressed that these societies, besides emphasised physical training, aimed their activity to the development of Croatian national conscience. The first "Sokol" society in Croatia was founded in Zagreb in 1874. under the name "Hrvatski sokol". The first "Sokol" society in
Slavonia was founded in Vukovar in 1886. under the name "Hrvatsko družtvo za tjelovježbu Sriemski sokol".
After that follows the museological elaboration, and historical contextualization of the flags according to available publications and party papers. Only one of the six flags, the flag of Croatian "Sokol" Osijek Donji grad, originates from the first period of the movement i.e. during Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The other five flags originated in the most intensive period of these societies between 1924. and 1929. Three flags are the symbols of town "Sokol" societies (Hrvatski sokol Osijek Donji grad, Hrvatski konjanički sokol Osijek Donji grad and Hrvatski sokol Đakovo), and the remaining three are symbols of country "Sokol" societies-Bervaci, Brezine and Nijemci. The flag of Croatian "Sokol" from Đakovo is an example of quality; almost artistic realization of the most famous Croatian embroiders Miroslava Hržić. The flag of Croatian "Sokol" Beravci was made in the same manner. "Sokol" flags from Đakovo and Beravci represent a highly quality embroidery with characteristics of folk handicrafts of Đakovo area.
