Upper Sioux Community is a federally recognized tribe in Minnesota, with
about 500 enrolled members.

The flag shown above with the diagonal logo and linden(?) leaves and flowers
seems to be the new flag, but there are two different versions. The one with the
diagonal emblem is found in very few photos, dated around 2011. Another version
with upright quartering has many photos from 2009 (maybe even 2006) until now.

It has three flags that changed through the years. The oldest one is green with
inscription "PEJUHUTAZIZI KAPI OYATE NATION". The next is blue
with inscription "PEZIHUTAZIZI OYATE". The current flag is
petroleum in color with changed tribal logo.

I also found a drawing (I don't know if it was also used as a
flag) with white background (on Wikipedia), and one with a black background
(on January 2014).
