(reported 10 Sep 2004)Lojban (first known as Loglan) was created in 1955 in
University circles not to became “real” language, but to test
the Whorf-Shapir hypothesis. It’s another experiment that turn out
just too good as today exists an unexpected large number of speakers
(about 100 plus over a thousand “enthusiasts”).

The Lojban flag depicts two dark blue interlocked rings on white
background with a red arrow cross superimposed on them. It is a
Venn diagram (set intersection) and a cartesian referential.

A history of the
symbol, in English, informs that it was created for a 1990 competition,
winning by a «large majority of positive votes among the
35-40 ballots received», as announced on March 1991 in
Ju'i
Lobypli 14; it was designed by Guy Garnett.

In an online
lojbanist discussion forum, we learn that this logo/flag is not
consensual nor widely used.
António Martins, 10 Sep 2004 and 07 Nov 2005
While still not in widespread and exclusive use among Lojbanists (as
much as it can be gleaned from online Lojbanist emblematics image galleries
such as this or
these
two),
it can be said that the Venn/Descartes symbol is the logo of Lojban
(cf. this article)
and indeed that the flag bearing it is the flag of the language.
