Кіріспе
Алабама штатының қазіргі туы (Алабама штаты тарихындағы екінші) 1895 жылдың 16 ақпанында Алабама заң шығарушы органының 383-ші заңымен бекітілді:
blockquote"Тудың түсі – ақ, ал оның үстінде қызыл түсті Әндірдің айқасы бейнеленген. Айқасты құрайтын жолақтардың ені кемінде алты дюйм болуы керек және тудың қарама-қарсы жақтарына диагональ бойынша созылуы тиіс." – (1896 жылғы кодекс, §3751; 1907 жылғы кодекс, §2058; 1923 жылғы кодекс, §2995; 1940 жылғы кодекс, T. 55, §5.) Заңда көрсетілген Әндірдің айқасы – диагональды айқас, вексиллогияда ол сальтир деп аталады. Жолақтардың ені кемінде болуы керек болғандықтан, Алабама туының кішкентай бейнелері заңдық талаптарға сай келмейді. 2001 жылы Солтүстік Америкалық вексиллогиялық қауымдастығы жүргізген сауалнама бойынша Алабама штатының туы 72 канадалық провинцияның, АҚШ штаттарының және АҚШ территорияларының туларының дизайны сапасы бойынша 29-орынды иеленді. Кейбір дереккөздер сальтирдің Конфедерацияны еске алу мақсатымен жасалғанын айтады, бірақ заңнамалық құжаттарда тудың шабыттанылған себебі көрсетілмеген.

The current flag of Alabama (the second in Alabama state history) was adopted by Act 383 of the Alabama Legislature on February 16, 1895:
blockquote|"The flag of the State of Alabama shall be a crimson cross of St. Andrew on a field of white. The bars forming the cross shall be not less than six inches broad, and must extend diagonally across the flag from side to side." – (Code 1896, §3751; Code 1907, §2058; Code 1923, §2995; Code 1940, T. 55, §5.) The cross of St. Andrew referred to in the law is a diagonal cross, known in vexillology as a saltire. Because the bars must be at least wide, small representations of the Alabama flag do not meet the legal definition. In 2001, a survey conducted by the North American Vexillological Association ranked Alabama's state flag 29th in design quality of the 72 Canadian provincial, U. S. state and U. S. territorial flags. There are sources that believe the saltire was intended to memorialize the Confederacy, but no legislative records indicate the inspiration for the flag. History
1861 flag
On January 11, 1861, the Alabama Secession Convention passed a resolution designating an official flag. Designed by several women from Montgomery, final touches were made by Francis Corra of that city. One side of the flag displayed the goddess of Liberty holding an unsheathed sword in her right hand; in her left, she held a small blue flag with one gold star. Above the gold star appears the text "Alabama" in all capital letters. In an arch above this figure were the words "Independent Now and Forever". The reverse side of the flag had a cotton plant with a coiled rattlesnake. The text "Noli Me Tangere", ("Touch Me Not" in Latin), was placed below the cotton plant. This flag was flown until February 10, 1861, when it was removed to the governor's office after it was damaged by severe weather. It was never flown again. St. Andrew's cross represents the cross on which St. Andrew was crucified. The legislation that created the state flag did not specify that the flag was to be square but defined the width of the bars of the cross. Despite this, the flag is still often depicted as being square, even in official publications of the U. S. federal government. The saltire of Alabama's flag most closely resembles the saltire of the flag of Florida, which was derived from the Spanish Cross of Burgundy. Southern Alabama was originally part of Spanish Florida and subsequently West Florida. Alabama adopted its flag design in 1895, five years earlier than Florida did. Theories on origin
The inspiration for Alabama's flag is not known. Many have noted that a saltire also appears in flags used decades earlier by the Confederate States of America, a group of states, including Alabama, that declared secession and warred against the United States during the American Civil War. No documentation in the legislative records indicates the Alabama flag was intended to commemorate the Confederacy. Still, various people have asserted over the decades that the design was drawn from the Confederate battle flag. In 1906, a piece in the Birmingham Age Herald stated the Alabama state flag "has no history woven into it". The authors of a 1917 article in National Geographic'' expressed their opinion that the Alabama flag was based on the Confederate battle flag. In 1924, Bell Allen Ross, a member of the Daughters of the Confederacy, said that Rep. John W. A. Sanford Jr. modeled his design of the Alabama flag on the battle flag used by his father, John W. A. Sanford, while commanding the Hilliard's Legion regiment. She said Sanford's design was meant to preserve some of the distinctive features of the Confederate battle flag, particularly the Saint Andrews Cross. In an 1987 letter, Alabama Attorney General Don Siegelman wrote that the flag was modeled after Sanford's 60th Alabama Infantry Regiment battle flag. But other contemporary commentators, such as Steve Murray, Director of the Alabama Department of History and Archives, believe the origins of the flag are unclear. According to Murray, the flag's connections to the battle flag are thin and based on suppositions. Murray said, "I would conclude that if they were wanting to evoke the Confederate battle flag, they would have been more explicit about doing it either in the design which could have more closely resembled the Confederate flag." Murray also noted that Alabama may have wanted to approve a new state flag to prepare for an exposition in Atlanta, Georgia, later that year.

1861 жылдың 11 қаңтарында Алабаманың сецессиялық конвенциясы ресми туды белгілеу туралы қаулы қабылдады. Монтгомери қаласының бірнеше әйелдері жобалаған, ал соңғы түзеулерді сол қаланың тұрғыны Фрэнсис Корра жасады. Тудың бір жағында бостандық құдайы оң қолында қынаптан шығарылған қылыш ұстап тұрды, ал сол қолында бір алтын жұлдызы бар кішкентай көк ту бар еді. Алтын жұлдыздың үстінде үлкен әріптермен "Алабама" деген сөз жазылған. Бұл бейненің үстіндегі аркада "Қазір және мәңгіге тәуелсіз" деген сөздер жазылған. Тудың екінші жағында мақта өсіретін өсімдік пен оралған жылан бейнеленген. Мақта өсіретін өсімдіктің астына "Noli Me Tangere" ("Мені тиіспе" деген латын тіліндегі сөз) жазылған. Бұл ту 1861 жылдың 10 ақпанына дейін желбіреп тұрды, содан кейін ауа райының нашарлығынан зақымданғаннан кейін губернатор кеңсесіне әкелінді. Одан кейін ол қайтадан қолданылмады. Әндірдің айқасы – Әндірдің айқасқа шегеленіп өлтірілгендегі бейнесі. Штат туын құрған заңда тудың шаршы болуы талап етілмеген, бірақ айқастың жолақтарының ені анықталған. Осыған қарамастан, ту жиі шаршы пішінде бейнеленеді, тіпті АҚШ федералды үкіметінің ресми басылымдарында да. Алабама туының сальтирі Флорида туының сальтиріне өте ұқсас, ол Бургундия кресінен алынған. Оңтүстік Алабама бастапқыда испан Флоридасының, кейін Батыс Флориданың бөлігі болды. Алабама штаты өзінің туын 1895 жылы, Флоридадан бес жыл бұрын қабылдады.

Despite this, the flag is still often depicted as being square, even in official publications of the U. S. federal government. The saltire of Alabama's flag most closely resembles the saltire of the flag of Florida, which was derived from the Spanish Cross of Burgundy. Southern Alabama was originally part of Spanish Florida and subsequently West Florida. Alabama adopted its flag design in 1895, five years earlier than Florida did. Theories on origin
The inspiration for Alabama's flag is not known. Many have noted that a saltire also appears in flags used decades earlier by the Confederate States of America, a group of states, including Alabama, that declared secession and warred against the United States during the American Civil War. No documentation in the legislative records indicates the Alabama flag was intended to commemorate the Confederacy. Still, various people have asserted over the decades that the design was drawn from the Confederate battle flag. In 1906, a piece in the Birmingham Age Herald stated the Alabama state flag "has no history woven into it". The authors of a 1917 article in National Geographic'' expressed their opinion that the Alabama flag was based on the Confederate battle flag. In 1924, Bell Allen Ross, a member of the Daughters of the Confederacy, said that Rep. John W. A. Sanford Jr. modeled his design of the Alabama flag on the battle flag used by his father, John W. A. Sanford, while commanding the Hilliard's Legion regiment. She said Sanford's design was meant to preserve some of the distinctive features of the Confederate battle flag, particularly the Saint Andrews Cross. In an 1987 letter, Alabama Attorney General Don Siegelman wrote that the flag was modeled after Sanford's 60th Alabama Infantry Regiment battle flag. But other contemporary commentators, such as Steve Murray, Director of the Alabama Department of History and Archives, believe the origins of the flag are unclear. According to Murray, the flag's connections to the battle flag are thin and based on suppositions. Murray said, "I would conclude that if they were wanting to evoke the Confederate battle flag, they would have been more explicit about doing it either in the design which could have more closely resembled the Confederate flag." Murray also noted that Alabama may have wanted to approve a new state flag to prepare for an exposition in Atlanta, Georgia, later that year.
The current flag of Alabama (the second in Alabama state history) was adopted by Act 383 of the Alabama Legislature on February 16, 1895:
blockquote|"The flag of the State of Alabama shall be a crimson cross of St. Andrew on a field of white. The bars forming the cross shall be not less than six inches broad, and must extend diagonally across the flag from side to side." – (Code 1896, §3751; Code 1907, §2058; Code 1923, §2995; Code 1940, T. 55, §5.) The cross of St. Andrew referred to in the law is a diagonal cross, known in vexillology as a saltire. Because the bars must be at least wide, small representations of the Alabama flag do not meet the legal definition. In 2001, a survey conducted by the North American Vexillological Association ranked Alabama's state flag 29th in design quality of the 72 Canadian provincial, U. S. state and U. S. territorial flags. There are sources that believe the saltire was intended to memorialize the Confederacy, but no legislative records indicate the inspiration for the flag. History
1861 flag
On January 11, 1861, the Alabama Secession Convention passed a resolution designating an official flag. Designed by several women from Montgomery, final touches were made by Francis Corra of that city. One side of the flag displayed the goddess of Liberty holding an unsheathed sword in her right hand; in her left, she held a small blue flag with one gold star. Above the gold star appears the text "Alabama" in all capital letters. In an arch above this figure were the words "Independent Now and Forever". The reverse side of the flag had a cotton plant with a coiled rattlesnake. The text "Noli Me Tangere", ("Touch Me Not" in Latin), was placed below the cotton plant. This flag was flown until February 10, 1861, when it was removed to the governor's office after it was damaged by severe weather. It was never flown again. St. Andrew's cross represents the cross on which St. Andrew was crucified.

Алабама туының шабыттанылған себебі белгісіз. Көптеген адамдар сальтирдің ондаған жылдар бұрын Америка Конфедерациясы мемлекеттері қолданған туларында да бар екенін атап өтті, бұл мемлекеттер, Алабаманы қоса, сецессия жариялап, Америка Азамат соғысында АҚШ-қа қарсы соғысқан. Заңнамалық құжаттарда Алабама туының Конфедерацияны еске алу мақсатымен жасалғаны көрсетілмейді. Дегенмен, ондаған жылдар бойы әртүрлі адамдар дизайн Конфедерацияның жауынгерлік туынан алынған деп мәлімдеді. 1906 жылы "Бирмингем Эйдж Геральд" газетінде Алабама штатының туының "тарихы жоқ" деп жазылған. 1917 жылы "National Geographic" журналында жарияланған мақаланың авторлары Алабама туының Конфедерацияның жауынгерлік туына негізделген деген пікірін білдірді. 1924 жылы Конфедерацияның қыздарының мүшесі Белл Аллен Росс, Джон У. А. Санфордтың Алабама туының дизайнын әкесі Джон У. А. Санфордтың Хиллиард легионы полкінің жауынгерлік туынан алғанын айтты. Ол Санфордтың дизайны Конфедерацияның жауынгерлік туының ерекшеліктерін, әсіресе Әндірдің кресін сақтап қалу үшін жасалғанын айтты. 1987 жылы Алабама штатының бас прокуроры Дон Сигельман жазған хатында ту Санфордтың 60-шы Алабама атқыштар полкінің жауынгерлік туына негізделгендігі айтылды. Бірақ басқа да қазіргі заманғы сарапшылар, мысалы, Стив Мюррей, Алабама тарихы және мұрағаттар департаментінің директоры, тудың шығу тегі анық емес деп санайды. Мюррейдің айтуынша, тудың жауынгерлік тумен байланысы әлсіз және болжамдарға негізделген. Мюррей: "Егер олар Конфедерацияның жауынгерлік туын еске түсіргісі келсе, онда олар дизайнда оған ұқсас болуын нақтырақ көрсетуі керек еді" деді. Мюррей сонымен қатар, Алабама сол жылдың соңында Атлантада (Джорджия) өтетін көрмеге дайындық үшін жаңа штаттық туды бекітуді қалаған болуы мүмкін екенін атап өтті.

Губернатордың туы
Алабама губернаторының туы штат туының бір түрі. Тудың жоғарғы қиылысында штаттың елтаңбасы бейнеленген. Төменгі қиылысында толық ашылған қаппен мақтадан тұратын штаттың әскери таңбасы бар.
The flag of the governor of Alabama is a variant of the state flag. In the top saltire, the flag displays the state coat of arms. The bottom saltire contains the state military crest, which consists of a cotton plant with full bursting boll.
