The History of Tattoos

In ancient times and some of the more primitive peoples of modern times, tattooing was a ritual in which a needle stuck with color or ink penetrated the skin and left an imprint on the skin. It is a kind of faith. This kind of ritual with patience and pain is as important as religious totems. In ancient times, the decoration of tattoos has important religious significance and magic. People will be able to withstand this pain and become heroes. Some people use tattoos to celebrate the adulthood of a person. Some ethnic groups think that tattoos can prevent diseases. Even exorcism or immortality.
However, the tattoo was originally based on the original aim of survival. People imitated the exotic colors and textures on the fur, pierced the skin with bone needles and insoluble plant juices, leaving behind lines similar to animals to hide the jungle. This is the earliest tattoo. Later, with the improvement of civilization, tattoos have been given the meaning of decoration, totem worship, commemoration and so on. Another way of saying is that tattoos originate from human-animal worship. Ancient people envy different kinds of bright colors and textures on furs and use colorful paints to simulate various beautiful things in nature.
After the Stone Age, tattoos appeared for the first time in Egypt and China. The tattoo was considered a symbol of wealth and social status at that time. Later became the identity of the tribe, the original decoration, religious mascots.

From the statues of white jade unearthed from the tombs of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, it can be seen that ancient Egyptians had the custom of eyebrow tattoos and tattoo lines. As a totem, Egyptians call themselves "sons of the eagle."
It can be traced back to 3,500 years ago in China. It was then used as a penalty, namely, ‘face and ink punishment’.Dragon is the unique totem of the Chinese nation. Its unparalleled form and the magic power it has been given have been widely worshipped. Dragon, as a collection of many ferocious animals, also expressed the desire to acquire the magical power of the natural world to strengthen itself.
