The real cross is the other way around (mirrored image), as you can see here: http://www.mysteriousworld.com/Content/Images/Journal/2003/Summer/Giants/NaziFlag.gif This "reversed Swastika" can be found in numerous places: The Nydam Bog (look at the bottom of the page): http://wapedia.mobi/en/Nydam_Mose A buddhist temple: http://wapedia.mobi/en/File:Buddhistswastika.jpg The flag of the city Hirosaki, in Japan: http://wapedia.mobi/en/Hirosaki,_Aomori So we could be facing a very angry Danish from the year 200AD, a peaceful buddhist monk, a Japanese backpacker eager to come back to Oz... or an angry (and probably drunk) kid that doesn't even know what he's talking about. Place your bets ;-) Well, actually, this is not a nazi cross (Swastika) at all. The real cross is the other way around (mirrored image), as you can see here:
