Summary

Description

One personal artistic interpretation of the Gorean "Dina" abstract flower symbol (as very vaguely verbally described in John Norman's series of "Gor" science-fiction books). Depicted with five-fold rotational symmetry because of the comment in books 11, 22, 23, and 25 that it is "rose-like".

Alternative version to that shown in Dina-gor.svg .
