4. THE LEGEND OF THE
DACIAN FLAG WITH A
WOLF’S HEAD
Decebalus was the most brave and
wise of our Dacia’s kings, our grandfathers. Since
he was a little boy, he was brave, righteous, honest
and sympathetic towards those suffering.
But he was showing compassion not
only towards people, but he was also treating
animals with care and pity. One day, while he was
walking with his friend, Duran, through the woods
around Sarmisegetusa, he found the cub of an wolf
collapsed in a precipice. It was little, it barely
opened his eyes and, while falling, it broke a leg. It
was shaking, yelping and was about to die.
.
Decebalus took it to the fortress,
tied its broken leg between little shovels and
gave shelter to the animal in a shed. When it
cured, it grew bigger and stronger than a
Shepherd dog. It was tamed, good with the
good ones and fierce with the bad ones.
It had grey, shaggy hair, thick neck, strong legs
and sharp fangs. When it was furious, it would
shriek, like a whistle, which would frighten all
the dogs and people. Maybe that’s the reason
why Decebalus called it Whistle and taught it to
gather the game shot down with an arrow by
him in the woods. Once, during a harsh winter
with snow-drifts, Decebalus separated himself
from the hunters’ group.

5. And, all of a sudden, in a forest glade, a pack
of hungry wolves rushed upon him. At first, Whistle’s eyes
sparkled as if it was happy to see its brothers. Decebalus
took his sword with the point bent and stayed at a beech’s
trunk to defend himself from the wild beasts. He called
Whistle to help him. The tamed wolf came at his feet. But
the wolf pack surrounded the tree. The first wolf that
attacked was thrust by the young prince’s bent sword
notched in the neck. The other wolves were prepared to
jump…
All of a sudden, Whistle attacked the wolves
and started a fierce fight with them, scraping and
dissipating the snow. But the wolves were numerous and
they started tearing him with their fangs. Decebalus, up in
the tree, was spiking them with the arrows and the pack
retired in the woods singing with sorrow.
Scorilo, Decebalus’ father, was amazed at
his son’s bravery:
– Father, Whistle saved me!
Then, everyone saw Whistle lying among the
four darted wolves that reddened the snow.
Whistle couldn’t live anymore. It died while watching his
master who it defended with loyalty.
The young man asked a blacksmith to make
a brass wolf head, with its mouth open, a head like that of
Whistle.
A furrier sewed a kin’s skin some kind of bag,
long of 2 meters, that , attached to the brass wolf head put
on a iron pole, was whistling when blown by the wind.
That’s how the Dacian fight flag was made.
That is the Romanian legend about
ROMANIAN FLAG.
