I recently noticed that some Tibetan symbols bear a similarity to those used in the broader milieu.

A list of their symbols can be found at :  Tibetan Unicode

Of particular interest would be :

the svasti signs, 0FD5-0FD8 ;

the Yin-Yang-like symbols, 0FC9-0FCC ; I believe i've seen something similar to 0FCC in the Swastika Stone of Ilkley Moor

an X with dots, 0FBF ;

three small circles in an equilateral triangular arrangement, 0F1C ; I've seen many similar arrangements of dots on an ancient carved stone bull ; The Tamil symbology also contains such a sign.

a circle with four dots around it, 0F13 ;

a pair of circles above and below a line, 0F14 ;

cantillation signs, 0FC0-0FC3 ; 0FC3 makes me wonder if some of the european carvings of tailed cups within rings could have had percussive symbology.

The linked chart explains also provides some information on their Tibetan meanings.
