"The fasces" the original symbol of fascism!

This is a Fasces and is the original symbol of fascism


As there were many different manifestations of fascism, especially during the interwar years, there were also many different symbols of Fascist movements. Fascist symbolism typically involved nationalist imagery.The original symbol of fascism, in Italy under Benito Mussolini, was the fasces. This is an ancient Roman symbol of power carried by lictors in front of magistrates; a bundle of sticks featuring an axe, indicating the power over life and death.
