This is also the place that the religious belief of reincarnation started. The Religion was named after the region it originated from just as Judaism is named after the region it originated from.
Websters defines it as a native or inhabitant of India, but I disagree and would say that that would be an Indian, not a Hindu. It also says that a Hindu is a follower of Hinduism, but the name Hinduism came after Hindu so I am not in full agreement with that either. I would say it doesn't really have a definition that isn't circular so it can't really be defined.
A Hindu is someone who practices Hinduism.
Hindu's are the people who follow the religion called Hinduism. Hinduism was founded in India many years ago. Sikhism is another religion that has been formed from Hinduism.

There are two major symbols in Hinduism (or Sanatan Dharma): One is the symbol OM and the other is Swastika. Please specify which symbol you want information on.
Hinduism has no special symbol for 'karma'. However, in buddhism, the 'wheel' is the symbol of karma.
'AUM' or 'OM' (pranava) is the most pronounced sacred symbol which means "the essence of entire universe".
By "Hinduism Symbol" I am assuming that you mean the sacred Aum sound, which is found in many Hindu prayers, religious texts, as well as meditation methods. It is also a sacred mantra in other Dharmic religions such as Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, but originated from the Rig-Veda which forms the backbone of modern Hindu culture and practices.
There was no particular person they just had a simple symbol which is the symbol of Hinduism
