a brief history of tattoos #8
ENGLAND
Explorers returned home with tattooed polynesians to exhibit at fairs, in lecture halls and in dime museums, to demonstrate the height of european civilization compared to the ‘primitive natives’. After captain cook returned from his voyage to polynesia tattooing became a tradition in the British NAVY. By the middle of the 18th century most british ports had at least one professional tattoo artist in residence. In 1862, the prince of Wales, later to become king Edward VII, received his first tattoo - a Jerusalem Cross - on his arm. He started a tattoo fad among the aristocracy when he was tattooed before ascending to the throne. In 1882, his sons, the duke of Clarence and the duke of York were tattooed by the japanese master tattooist, Hori Chiyo.
FRANCE
In the 18th century, many french sailors returning from voyages in the south pacific had been tattooed. In 1861, french naval surgeon, Maurice Berchon, published a study on the medical complications of tattooing. After this, the navy and army banned tattooing within their ranks.

a brief history of tattoos #7
THE CELTS
Were a tribal people who moved across Western Europe in times around 1200 and 700 B.C. They reached the British Isles around 400 B.C. And most of what has survived from their culture is in the areas now known as Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Celtic culture was full of body art. Permanent body painting was done with woad, which left a blue design on the skin. Spirals are very common, and they can be single, doubled or tripled. Knotwork is probably the most recognized form of celtic art, with lines forming complex braids which then weave across themselves. These symbolise the connection of all life step or key patterns, like those found in early labyrinth designs, are seen both in simple borders and full complex mazes. Much in the way that labyrinths are walked, these designs are symbolic of the various paths that life’s journey can take.
CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA
In peru, tattooed inca mummies dating to the 11th century have been found. 16th century spanish accounts of mayan tattooing in Mexico and Central Americareveal tattoos to be a sign of courage. When cortez and his conquistadors arrived on the coast of Mexico in 1519 they were horrified to discover that the natives not only worshipped devils in the form of statues and idols, but had somehow managed to imprint indelible images of these idols on their skin. The spaniards, who had never heard of tattooing, recognized it at once as the work of satan. The sixteenth century spanish historians who chronicled the adventures of cortez and his conquistadors reported that tattooing was widely practiced by the natives of central america.
NORTH AMERICA
Early jesuit accounts testify to the widespread practice of tattooing among native americans. Among the chickasaw, outstanding warriors were recognised by their tattoos. Among the Ontario Iroquoians, elaborate
tattoos reflected high status. In north-West America, inuit women's chins were tattooed to indicate marital status and group identity. The first permanent tattoo shop in NYC was settled up in 1846 and began a tradition by tattooing military servicemen from both sides of the civil war. Samuel O'Reilly invented the electric
tattooing machine in 1891.
MIDDLE-EAST
During the time of the old testament, much of the pagan world was practicing the art of tattooing as a means of deity worship. A passage in Leviticus reads: ‘ye shall not make any cuttings on your flesh for the dead nor
print any marks upon you’. (19:28) this has been cited as biblical authority to support the Church's position. Biblical scholar M.W. Thomson suggests, however, that moses favored tattoos. Moses introduced tattoos as a way to commemorate the deliverance of the Jews from slavery in Egypt.
VIKINGS
It is very likely that the vikings were tattooed. At around year 1100 the Arab Ibn Fadlan described a
meeting with some vikings. He thought them very rude, dirty - and covered with pictures.

a brief history of tattoos #6
NEW ZEALAND
the maori of New Zealand had created one of the most impressive cultures of all polynesia. Their tattoo, called ‘moko’, reflected their refined artistry - using their woodcarving skills to carve skin. The full-face moko was a mark of distinction, which communicated their status, lines of descent and tribal affiliations. it recalled their
wearer's exploits in war and other great events of their life.
INDONESIA
Borneo is one of the few places in the world where traditional tribal tattooing is still practiced today just as it has been for thousands of years. Until recently many of the inland tribes had
little contact with the outside world. As a result, they have preserved many aspects of their traditional
way of life, including tattooing. Borneo designs have gone all around the world to form the
basis of what the western people call ‘tribal’.
INDIA / THAILAND
Hanuman in India was a popular symbol of strength on arms and legs. The mythical monk is still today one of the most popular creations in Thailand and Myanmar. They are put on the human body by monks who incorporate magical powers to the design while tattooing. Women are excluded because monks are not allowed to be touched by them and because thais believe women do not need the extra boost as they are already strong enough on their own.
AFRICA
In Africa, where people have dark skin, it is difficult to make coloured tattoos as we know them. But they want to be tattooed anyway, so they have developed another technique - they make scarifications (this is not really tattooing, but it is related to tattooing). Made by lifting the skin a little, and making a cut with a knife or some other sharp thing special sands or ashes were rubbed in to make raised scars in patterns on the body, it can be felt like braille lettering... these patterns often follow local traditions.
ANCIENT GREECE AND ROME
The greeks learnt tattooing from the persians. Their woman were fascinated by the idea of tattoos as
exotic beauty marks. The romans adopted tattooing from the greeks. Roman writers such as virgil, seneca, and galenus reported that many slaves and criminals were tattooed. A legal inscription from ephesus indicates that during the early roman empire all slaves exported to asia were tattooed with the words ‘tax paid’. Greeks and romans also used tattooing as a punishment. Early in the fourth century, when Constantine became roman emperor and rescinded the prohibition on Christianity, he also banned tattooing on face, which was common for convicts, soldiers, and gladiators. Constantine believed that the human face was a representation of the
image of God and should not be disfigured or defiled.
