Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A tomoe or tomoye (archaic) is a Japanese abstract shape (i.e. a swirl) that resembles a comma or the usual form of magatama. It is a common design element in Japanese family emblems (, kamon?) and corporate logos, particularly in triplicate whorls known as mitsu tomoe. One mitsu tomoe variant, the Hidari Gomon, is the traditional symbol of Okinawa. The tomoe is very similar in design to the Korean sam-taegeuk, Tibetan Gankyil or Chinese yin/yang symbols. On the opposite side of Eurasia, the Basque lauburu and some forms of the Celtic spiral triskele resemble small groups of tomoe.
