The flag of Hammond, Indiana, has centered on it a map of the Land of Calumet
(see image). The flag of Hammond was
adopted in 1971. Source: Albert Kirsch.
It is uncertain if the flag is coloured. I THINK the two rivers are named Great
Calumet and Little Calumet - although it certainly looks to me from the flag

The flag shows the city seal on a white field, the seal includes a map of the
area, with a star showing Logansport at the confluence of the Eel and Wabash
Rivers; also shown are Chief Logan, after whom the city is named, and a steam
train, an important early industry.
