Tattoo history I HOPE YOU LIKE THEM.

in #art7 years ago

It seems that the world of "Tattoo" is something current or modern, however it is a millenary custom and perhaps one of the first since the modern human being emerged. A custom practiced by different cultures, in the western world was punished during some periods exactly in the middle and modern age where it governed the catholic church and was only accepted in the crusaders knights in order to be recognized in case of death in some battle finally the tattoos were accepted again in the West.

It is believed that this was a practice known by multiple cultures and performed differently. This is how it is recorded that in 1991 on a glacier located on the current Austrian border with Italy was found a frozen Neolithic hunter about 5,300 years ago who is called Ötzy and who had tattooed back and knees. A second man was found in Siberia with a tattoo on his shoulder and the studies carried out are estimated to date from 2,500 years ago.

It is known that Marco Polo relates that on his trip to Yunán he found people tattooed and in the 16th century John Hawkins discovered Indians tattooed in Florida.7 However, those who introduced the tattoo into Western society were the English expeditionaries whose captain was Cooken. his return from Tahiti in 1771, they learned to perform tattoos in Polynesia and installed their centers in ports, it is for this fact that tattoos are attributed to sailors. Little by little, the fame of the tattoo was created among the sailors and the tattoos began to associate with the lower class and with the delinquents, since some sailors embarked for long periods to avoid justice. In one of Cook's trips, Moko art was discovered among the Maori of New Zealand, it was a tribal tattoo that identified each individual and their status within a group, made the person unique and unmistakable and the more complicated the larger design it was the rise in their social rank, they started at age 8, it was a process that lasted for months, and that resulted in spiraling black designs in which they thought they could trap the cosmic energy and stripes.
