The swastika was used by many ancient cultures in Eurasia.
Is also a very old Bhuddist symbol of peace that was (and still is)used primarily in China, Japan, India, etc.
Medals? Finnish Cross of Freedom.

Right you are! As for medals, the British empire used the symbol for many WW I medals (India was part of the empire then, hence the connection).
