Lauburu is the name for the Basque Country's cross.
Specifically, the graceful cross with clockwise-waving heads functions as an ancient symbol within Basque culture. It gets its name from combining the number lau ("four [4]") with the noun buru ("head"). The pronunciation will be "LOW* boo-ROO" or "low* BOO-roo" depending upon the speaker's birthplace.
*The sound is similar to that of English exclamation "Ow!"
