The parish of (San José de) Ancón is part of Santa Elena canton (Santa Elena
province).
Ancón is the cradle of oil extraction in Ecuador and South America. The oil
shaft "Ancón 1" was established in 1911 by the Anglo Ecuadorian Oilfields Ltd.
company. In 1923, the original mining camp had turned into an organized town;
the Polish community placed the town under the protection of St. Joseph. The
Ancón oilfields, nationalized on 16 June 1976, were taken over by Corporación
Estatal Petrolera Ecuatoriana (CEPE), today, Petroecuador. The civic
organization pushing the establishment of the parish of Ancón was formed the
next day. The parish of Ancón was established by Ministerial Agreement No. 350
of 15 November 2002, published on 4 February 2003 in the Supplement to the
Official Register, No. 14.

The flag of Ancón is white with a dark green stripe placed along the
descending diagonal and charged with three yellow, six-pointed stars, the
central (seemingly) bigger.
White is a symbol of unity and integration - of Ecuadorian citizens form
different parts of the country and of citizens from other countries of the
world. White is also a symbol of peace.
The dark green stripe is a symbol of oil, the natural resource at the origin of
the parish. The three stars represent the capital of the parish and the two
communes of El Tambo and Prosperidad.
