520    The first theoretically informed study of the relationship
       between an academic discipline and what the Nazis termed 
       their Weltanschauung. The first study of Sinnbildforschung,
       German ideograph or swastika studies, though more broadly 
       it tells the tale of the development of German antiquarian
       studies (ancient Germanic history, archaeology, 
       anthropology, folklore, historical linguistics and 
       philology) under the influence of radical right wing 
       politics, and the contemporary construction of 
       'Germanicness' and its role in Nazi thought. The swastika 
       and similar symbols were employed by the ancestors of the 
       modern day Germans. As these had also become emblematic 
       symbols of the forces of German reaction, 
       Sinnbildforschung became intrinsically connected with the 
       National Socialist regime after 1933 and disappeared along
       with the Third Reich in 1945. With the Nazi seizure of 
       power, ideographic studies became directly supported by 
       the state. In 1935 an organization was founded within the 
       SS to further its study, the SS-Ahnenerbe. Most infamous 
       as the organ through which medical experiments were 
       arranged to be performed on the inmates of concentration 
       camps, the Ahnenerbe was founded as a historical research 
       institution before it expanded its horizons to the 
       physical sciences.
