According to Mukti Jain, the symbol is part of "an intricate meander pattern of joined up swastikas" found on a late paleolithic figurine of a bird, carved from mammoth ivory, found in Mezine, Ukraine and dated to 15,000 years old. These engraved objects were found near phallic objects, which states Jain may support the idea that the meandering pattern of swastika was a fertility symbol.[47] However it has also been suggested that this swastika may be a stylized picture of a stork in flight and not the true swastika that is in use today.[48]

In England, neolithic or Bronze Age stone carvings of the symbol have been found on Ilkley Moor.

Mirror-image swastikas (clockwise and anti-clockwise) have been found on ceramic pottery in the Devetashka cave, Bulgaria, dated to 6,000 BCE.[49]

Some of the earliest archaeological evidence of the swastika in the Indian subcontinent can be dated to 3,000 BCE


Lol citing Wikipedia, which anyone can edit and they seriously consider these as "swastikas".

These are not swastikas. They are just random designs/carvings. It's meaning and foundation was laid down in India and there are swastikas found in Dwarka, which is an underwater city (Atlantis of India) that has been dated back even further than 12000 BC.
