Ummm... let's see...
I think the fact that the symbol is present on the door does indeed show that the logo precedes Durandal's presence. I would hazard a guess that the logo even precedes Thoth, since the station would have been built before the W'rk was trapped in Lhowon's sun.
Looking at it that way, it seems the derivation is the other way around (Thoth's logo from the Jjaro logo).
As for Pthia? I believe that Pthia was another Jjaro (did we ever establish if they are individuals or a collective? I only recall guesses, by myself as much as anyone ("guesses" in that they weren't based on in-game evidence)). If Yrro had a name, it could have been lost in the journey from event to myth.
