Quote:since when is there evidence for the use of this symbol?

Besides the famous scutum from Dura, the milites at Dura had Swastikas on their tunics and many shoe soles have been found at Mainz nailed in Swastika patterns.

Conscribe te militem in legionibus, vide mundum, inveni terras externas, cognosce miros peregrinos, eviscera eos.
