The "swastika" was an American Indian symbol (or Native American, if you prefer) long before the Nazis knew about it.

Thank you so much, it’s amazing what one can learn here. I sincerely never knew that about the symbol.

It was also an ancient Buddhist symbol -- very commonly seen in Japan.

Of course, you can observe that it has an opposite direction of "rotation"...
