The 13 Star Betsy Ross Flag is a popularly attributed design of the flag of the United States, named after Betsy Ross who is said to have created it. The flag features the common motifs of alternating red and white striped fields with five-pointed stars in a blue canton. It was designed during the American Revolution and features 13 stars to represent the original 13 colonies. The distinctive feature of the Ross flag is the arrangement of the stars in a circle.

While the Betsy Ross legend is still debated by flag historians and revisionists, the flag design is known to have been in use by 1777. It is one of the oldest versions of U.S. flags known to exist, and its likeness appears on older physical relics, namely, the contemporary battlefield paintings by John Trumbull and Charles Willson Peale. They depict the circular star arrangement being flown from ship masts and many other places, and thus provide the first known historical documentation of the flag's appearance. Today, the 13 Star Betsy Ross Flag is a popular symbol of American patriotism and is often displayed on holidays such as Independence Day.
