Usage as “the” Bolivian Indian flag

The winner of today’s Bolivian presidental election is Evo Morales of the Movimento al Socialismo — MAS, who will be the first Indian president of Bolivia. Morales was shown at the election party with the Bolivian flag and the “Bolivian Indian flag” [i.e., the 7×7 white-diagonal square flag] behind him.
J. Patrick Fischer, 19 Dec 2005

This webpage shows the 7×7-chequered white-yellow-orange-red-purple-blue-green flag (with white “diagonal”) and calls it the Emblema Nacional del Pusinsuyo = Tawantinsuyo — which contradicts all other sources.

Usage as “the” South American Indian flag

Mapuche do use the square rainbow Whipala flag as a kind of “symbol of Native peoples from South America”. The whipala flag is a symbol associated with the Inca Empire.
