Rosa camuna
A relatively common petroglyph found in the Val Camonica region of northern Italy, often (but not always) found stylized as a Swastika.
The exact dating of this symbol is difficult to determine, as the region is rich in petroglyphs dating back to the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, however the symbol is often associated with the Iron Age, and thus, the Camunni people.
Although these people are mentioned in the Greek annals, their origin is unknown. There are some surviving inscriptions but the corpus is insufficient to class these people as Old European or Indo-European speakers. Nevertheless, the Swastika-like nature of this symbol commonly used by these people tells us much of the very ancient origin of the Swastika and its various permutations, and how this relates to the various tribes of north Eurasia.

Rosa camuna continued
The Rosa camuna, while commonly associated with the Val Camunica region, is not limited to there.
1.) The original Swastika Stone of West Yorkshire, UK. Its exact age is unknown, possibly Neolithic but most likely Iron Age construction
2.) Guifões Stone of Portugal. Some researchers believe this was imported from Val Camunica, although this is based solely on its similarity, and could have been made de novo.
3.) Celtic (Gaulish) coin found in northern France, circa 1st century B.C.
There is also a number of examples of this swastika found in churches in England, including the so-called Woden’s swastika in the Sutton church in Bedforshire. In addition, an example of this symbol found among the Bohuslän rock carvings of Sweden, although an original image can not be found at this time. But this would link this symbol to the Nordic Bronze Age civilization.

I am very excited to announce that I'm in the process of completing and publishing my very first book!😄 It will be covering a topic I've been discussing for over a year and have spent many months researching. Our fairytales are more than just bedtime stories, they are ethnic myths as old as time itself. This book will be about the beloved fairytale of Sleeping Beauty and how it functions as the myth of our spring and dawn goddess Ostara.🌹🌄
From the symbolism of the thorns and Thurisaz rune, to the significance of spinning figures and fates, forgotten heathen traditions of spring, and the tale's resemblance to the saga of Siegfried and Brunhilde, this book will be a deep dive into the heathen nature of one of Europe's most famed fairytales. I hope to have it out by Easter, but in the mean time if you'd like to consider supporting me on patreon and receive an advanced copy of the book, the link is below! I'll be sharing lots of previews on Telegram as well! Skal!

The ultimate origin of the Vedic deity Indra is uncertain. In the Lithuanian language, which bears striking similarity to Vedic Sanskrit, the planet Jupiter is simply "Jupiteris"; the deified Goddess symbolised by Jupiter, however, is named Indraja. This would require a linguist's eye to be certain of an etymological connection but, combining a cursory morphological analysis with mythological evidence, it is overwhelmingly likely that both Indraja and the Vedic storm deity Indra share an etymological root that has a Proto-Indo-European basis.

The European Elder Tree (species: Sambucus nigra, from the family Adoxaceae) holds a prominent place in native folklore.
In pre-Christian times, Indo-European peoples utilised the properties of the Elder Tree for medicinal and spiritual purposes, and thus they held it in reverence.
In the British Isles, it was customary to tip one's hat towards the Elder Tree as a mark of respect, and specifically in England & Scandinavia, those taking from the tree must ask permission from the Elder Mother (Danish: Hyldemoer) to use its materials.
"Old girl, give me some of thy wood and I will give thee some of mine when I grow into a tree" — typical recitation in England & Scandinavia.
