Goodyear, "Grammar of the Lotus," pl. 48, fig. 3.] _Swastikas with four arms crossing at right angles, ends bent to the left._--Figs. 141, 142, 144, 149, 151, 152, 153, 154, 156, and 157 represent the normal Swastika with four arms, all bending at right angles, but to the left. The vases on which they have been found are not described as to color or form. It would be difficult to do so correctly; besides, these descriptions are not important in our study of the Swastika. Fig. 155 represents a vase or pitcher (oinochoë, Greek--[Greek: oinos], wine, and [Greek: cheô], to pour) with painted Swastika, ends turned to the left. It is in the Museum of St. Germain, and is figured by M. De Mortillet in "Musée Préhistorique." Fig. 156 represents a Cyprian vase from Ormidia, in the New York Museum. It is described by Cesnola[177] and by Perrot and Chipiez.[178] Fig. 157 is taken from a fragment of archaic Greek pottery found in Santorin (Ancient Thera), an island in the Greek Archipelago. This island was first inhabited by the Phenicians, afterwards by the Greeks, a colony of whom founded Cyrene in Africa. This specimen is cited by Rochette and figured by Waring.[179] [Illustration: Fig. 168. CYPRIAN VASE WITH BOSSES, LOTUS BUDS, AND DIFFERENT SWASTIKAS. Cesnola Collection, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. Goodyear, "Grammar of the Lotus," pl. 48, fig. 15.] _Swastikas with four arms crossing at other than right angles, the ends ogee and to the left._--Figs. 158, 159, and 160 show Swastikas with four arms crossing at other than right angles, many of them ogee, but turned to the left. Fig. 161 is a representation of a wooden button or clasp, much resembling the later gold brooch of Sweden, classified by Montelius (p. 867), covered with plates of gold, from Sepulcher IV, Mycenæ (Schliemann, Mycenæ, fig. 385, p. 259). The ornament in its center is one of the ogee Swastikas with four arms (tetraskelion) curved to the left. It shows a dot in each of the four angles of the cross similar to the Suavastika of Max Müller and the _Croix swasticale_ of Zmigrodzki, which Burnouf attributed to the four nails which fastened the cross _Arani_ (the female principle), while the _Pramantha_ (the male), produced, by rotation, the holy fire from the sacred cross. An almost exact reproduction of this Swastika will be found on the shield of the Pima Indians of New Mexico (fig. 258).
