Such as this...

Seems to be an (early) Chinese pictogram, perhaps meaning 'man'. Have a search for those two keywords, and maybe you'll turn up something.

The Einst�rzende primitive man logo has been described as a "Toltec petroglyph of a man combined with a sun symbol". There is also a myth/rumour that it is inscribed on a stone at Stonehenge.
