<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taupou, post: 279617, member: 45&quot;]The rug is Navajo, circa 1920s.&nbsp; The symbol was associated with good luck, and commonly found on Navajo rugs, Pueblo pottery, and other crafts from many cultures, world-wide, until it became associated with Nazi Germany in the 1930s.&nbsp; Because the symbolism had changed, it quickly became unpopular, and vanished from use by craftspeople.&nbsp; Now, however, it does help date the items to pre-1935 or so.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
