Lacam: bandera. estandarte. pendón. es tambien apellido. lacam.
(This "lacam" in the Viana spelling, which followed (colonial) Spanish. In current ALMG spelling it would be "lakam".)
Both links above say that "Lakam" is also used as a surname, and the former mentions a flag-related military rank, ah lacam, which is translated as alférez.
