Round swastika.
The swastika originated as an ancient religious icon within the cultures of Eurasia, symbolizing divinity and spirituality in Indian religions. The swastika is an icon widely found in modern and historic artifacts, including items from remains of the Indus Valley Civilization, Mesopotamia, and early Byzantine and Christian artwork. For western cultures, it was a symbol of good luck and auspiciousness until the 1930s when it was adopted by the Nazi Party as a symbol of the Aryan race identity, thus stigmatizing the symbol by its association with ideas of antisemitism and racism.
