Parla Kimedi, India
BRIEF HISTORY: A state in Orissa, today named Parlakimidi. The state
represented 615 sq.miles.

Flag:
The images in Ziggioto (1998) were made by the collaboration of Lucien Philippe and Roberto Breschi, but the Peddakimedi image was in a series of four, made solely by Breschi, based upon images from the collection of J. McMeekin. This is, with its lion's head, similar to many flags in the Orissa principalities, which belong to the Tiger dynasty.
