Interesting—I don’t know of any non-verbal more-or-less-culturally-neutral signal that says “I want to cooperate”.
There’s “I mean no harm” (showing empty hands), there’s “I trust you” or “I submit” (bowing, kneeling, in general making yourself vulnerable), but nothing comes to mind with respect to equal cooperation.

I wonder what does this say about humanity.
