Description of the flag

The flag of Puerto Siles is turquoise with a green rectangle on the hoist side of the flag. To the right of this is a brown right-angle triangle, and to the right of this are five yellow stars which go diagonally. I am unable to find any images of the flag, but it does seem to exist (at least as a municipal symbol, since it is the background of the municipal Facebook page).

Coat of Arms

image located by Daniel Rentería, 19 December 2023

The coat of arms appears to display agriculture, perhaps animal husbandry, and fishing. Five stars are above the shield, and surrounding the shield appears to be the patujú flower. Below the shield is two ribbons, one being the flag of Puerto Siles and the other the flag of Mamoré Province (where it is located). Going across both ribbons is the word "MAMORE", the name of the river which flows by it.
