Description
Kolovrat is a variation of swastika with number of beams greater than 4, usually 8. While very similar multi-beam swastikas were found in use since Ancient Greece, the term itself was coined only in 1990s by one of the founders of Russian neo-paganism and neo-Nazi Alexey Dobrovolsky, with an intended meaning coinciding with the meaning of Nazi swastika.
Kolovrat is used by some people practicing Slavic neo-paganism and/or Russian neo-Nazism.
