For all my American readers, here in Canada the correct term for most native people is First Nations. The four-part circle in the middle is a medicine wheel, a symbol sacred to the First Nations peoples around here. Four in general is an important number - four seasons, four directions, etc. I saw this on the beach this morning - I love stumbling across lovely little expressions like this.
