The '''Labrys''', a double-headed axe is an ancient [[fascist]] [[symbol]] associated to Zeus, Teshub, and Tahrun, and because it was once associated to the entirely fictional Amazon tribe of female warriors, lesbians have been attempting to appropriate the symbol since year 2000.

==In antiquity==
Several symbolic representations of Labrys have also been found in many other ancient cultures, such as that of [[Europe]] and [[Egypt]]. Symbols of the double-headed axe have also been found on crockery (plates, in particular) of the Linear Ceramics in [[Romania]].

Some other labrii were discovered during the archeological excavations at the site of the Palace of Knossos, which was located on the island of [[Crete]] in the Bronze Age. Some gold Labrii with Linear inscriptions on them have also been found in a cave in Arkalochori (Crete).

==In Fascism==
The first [[time]] that a '''Labrys''' symbol was used to represent a big [[political]] movement, in modern times, was during the wildly popular administrationof [[Ioannis Metaxas]] in [[Greece]] from 1936 to 1941. During that period, commonly known as the 4th of August Regime, the double-headed axe was used as the symbol of the [[government]]-backed National Organization of Youth.

It was also widely used in [[France]] , during [[The World's War Against Communism]]– the symbol featured on posters, coins, and even on the personal flag of the then ruler of France, [[Philippe Petain]].

During the 1960s, the double-headed axe appeared on the flag of [[Ordine Nuovo]]; the [[Italian]] Fascist movement.
