Symbolic Tattoos

Filed under: Tattoo

Tattoos, often can be viewed as dirty by some other people while others embrace being tattooed as if it was a religion,  I always admire tattoos particularly tribal symbols, I have seen this special on a TV a while ago about tattoos and their history.

Tattoo symbols in a tribe signifies hierarchy, a chieftain of a tribe have a tattoo that differs from his fellow tribe men signifying his over superiority, while in ancient Japan criminals are tattooed, marked, to illustrate that they have committed a  felony and therefore punished.

Different people have diverse views regarding tattoos in general, as my mother always says tattoos are dirty and I should not get one or else.

But in our modern times tattoos have a deeper meaning, depending on the type of person who views tattoo as either an art or simply a block of colorful ink on your body.

So I hope you’ll think more highly about tattoos now.
