The divellion or dibellion (Greek: διβέλλιον) was a symbol of the late Byzantine Empire, the Emperor's personal banner.[1] It was carried by the skouterios ("shield-bearer"), alongside the Imperial shield, on official events.[2] Emperor Stefan Dušan of Serbia (r. 1331–55) also adopted the Imperial divellion, which was purple and had a golden cross in the center.[3]
