Thus the _sistres_ and the Swastika are brought into relation with each other. The _sistres_ possibly relate to an ancient religion, as they did in the Orient; the Swastika may have had a similar distinction. De Mortillet and others hold the same opinion.[122] CLASSICAL ORIENT. BABYLONIA, ASSYRIA, CHALDEA, AND PERSIA. Waring[123] says, "In Babylonian and Assyrian remains we search for it [the Swastika] in vain." Max Müller and Count Goblet d'Alviella are of the same opinion.[124] Of Persia, D'Alviella (p. 51), citing Ludwig Müller,[125] says that the Swastika is manifested only by its presence on certain coins of the Arsacides and the Sassanides. PHENICIA. It is reported by various authors that the Swastika has never been found in Phenicia, e. g. Max Müller, J. B. Waring, Count Goblet d'Alviella.[126]
