Humans have had their bodies inked for thousands of years so this is not something new at all. Designs have been used as a way of expressing personal religious belief, signification of a tribe or group, cultural status, punishment, or out of love. There's been mummies found from 5,200 years ago that have tattoos on them.
The earliest known examples that plenty of people site for tattoos were on plenty of female mummies which date back to about 2000 BC. As stated though, there was a recent discovery along the Austrian border which found a mummy that dates back about 5,200 years & this mummy also has patterns designed on it.

Bird Tattoos
Birds, real and mythical, have long been among the most popular of all the tattoo designs and symbols for centuries. All over the world, birds have been chosen to represent the widest range of human emotions and every country and culture has stories and myths were birds play central roles, so it’s no wonder they are a central feature in many tattoos. Bird tattoos can have countless meanings depending on the birds depicted. The birds depicted in the picture are swallows and are a favorite among sea faring people and is one of the centerpieces of the maritime tradition. Other bird tattoos that are associated with the maritime tradition include parrots and blue birds. Both of those birds signify good luck to those who travel the sea. Outside the sea faring tradition birds are more commonly associated with the feminine. In parts of rural Africa, ‘Hen’ refers to a motherly woman, while dove is the young girl. In Great Britain and the United States, chick and bird are synonyms for girlfriend, while old crow refers to the nagging old woman. Of course, their are exceptions to every rule, even in the tradition of bird tattoos. Eagles are often associated with great courage and are definitely a masculine symbol and what would Japanese tattooing be without the phoenix.
Bird tattoos can be seen in every culture throughout the world. And the symbolism expressed by the tattoos are often dependent on the society and the type of bird depicted. In North America, both Ravens and Crows are seen as tricksters and shape shifters among various native American tribes. They are birds often associated with Shamans and Medicine Men. Tribes usually associated themselves with certain birds and would proudly wear the clans bird tattoos. Among the Haida of the Pacific Northwest, the people identify themselves as belonging to either the Eagle or the Raven Clan. And for the Haida, Raven was the creator of the world, stealing the sun from where it was hidden in a box and allowing it to shine. Among the peoples of the Iroquoi Federation, there are both Heron and Snipe Clans. Another popular bird was the dove which signified peace and is usually adopted by members of the Christian faiths. In France, the rooster is associated with the proud heritage of that country and the sparrow and parrot are almost synonymous with many sea faring cultures and people. But, bird tattoos do not mean the same thing to different cultures and can often have dual meanings even in the same culture. Ravens, for instance are seen in the West as both symbols of good luck and harbingers of evil.

Leo Tattoos
This leo tattoo glyph is just one example of a Zodiac tattoo that you can get if you are born under this sun sign. You can choose your Leo tattoos from among various representations of Leo. You can choose the mane of a lion, the elemental sign of Leo, which is fire by the way or the ruling planet of leo which just happens to be not a planet at all, but the sun, source of Earth’s heat and light. This leo tattoo actually combines the glyph with the fire element. Now all this person has to do is to put a little sun up above it, to complete the entire theme. No matter what leo tattoo you choose, you need to keep two thing in mind. One, your sign governs your destiny. And two, with your leo tattoo, you also declare that you are bent upon getting results of your actions, and in that regard you always come out as a winner. So, choose a design that not only reflects your personality but also shows your pride in your unique sun sign. And for goodness sake spice it up a bit will you? And may the stars be with you.
This is a good representation of one of the leo tattoos available out there. It is a very well done, and very well detailed. It’s the face of a male lion and looking right at us, as if it means business. Not meaning it is going to attack, but certainly saying you’d better not mess with me, just keep walking. And anybody who doesn’t listen might just be a fool. Either that or a lion slayer. Anyone getting one of these leo tattoos is most likely getting it because Leo is their astrological sign. And in as much as that is true, the meaning behind it is that this person most likely feels very strong and always wants to take charge of any and all situations. I am a Leo so I know these things to be true, but as far as how they relate to this tattoo, that’s just a guess.
One of the strangest things about being a Leo is that even when you do not consider yourself the strongest or toughest, you still try to take charge all of the time and most of the time it works, whether you have any leo tattoos on you or not. For some reason people have a tendency to relinquish controls of things to other people who have the courage to step up and take those controls.

Lil Wayne Tattoos
Lil Wayne’s tattoos have always been a topic of great debate among his many fans, he has so many of them that it would be very difficult to describe them all in the space here. Since this is the case I am going to focus on the most obvious ones, the ones which are found on his face and mouth. One of his most controversial tattoos are the teardrops underneath his eyes. Now, in prison, teardrops usually mean that you have murdered someone. But, I think there is a different reason for this Lil Wayne tattoo. I think they represent three of his close friends who have died. Since he has two tear drops below one of his eyes and one tear below the other eye they probably relate to two separate instances when his loved ones died. Other Lil Wayne tattoos on his face include designs which are placed on his eye lids which together read "Fear God". He also has a letter "C" tattooed right in between his eyebrows, some people say that it stands for Carter which is his last name, right above that "C" there is a cross that indicates that he believes in God.
Basketball Tattoos
Sport tattoos have always enjoyed a certain amount of popularity. Whether the sport is baseball, hockey or soccer fans have always wanted to represent the game they love so much. And the styles and options available to the common sports fan are almost unlimited. Take this basketball tattoo for instance. The bearer has decided to represent the sport by having a basketball and hoop design inked into his skin. A nice touch to this basketball tattoo is the the slogan "NBA” imprinted on the ball. I like the design but I think that it could use a little splash of color. I would have at least had the ball shaded a nice bright orange or brown. Other basketball tattoos that could have been done include the portraits of individual ball players, specific team names and I have even seen a large tattoo of a basketball court. So, if your a fan of the sport then you might want to dream up a unique basketball tattoo of your own. Then you can proudly represent the game that you love and let every one know that you are a die hard fan. Imagine yourself going to your next game and showing off that beautiful basketball tattoo.
If your a sports fan you know how important it is support your favorite team. And it’s even more important for you to support the game itself. Whether it’s baseball, hockey or football that your a fan of then a well placed tattoo can show your loyalty to the sport. Take the basketball tattoo in the picture. It’s a wonderful design of a star with a basketball in the center of it. It’s well designed and shows that the bearer is a true fan of the sport. But, what really impresses me is the coloring of the basketball. Very genuine and it makes it look even more like a basketball. The bearer of this basketball tattoo can also add other elements to this design to make it pop even more. They could consider adding a basketball hoop, the name of their favorite team or even the numbers of their favorite ball players jersey. The options here are only limited by one’s own imagination. So, if your a fan of basketball and want to show your dedication to the game then you might want to consider getting a basketball tattoo. It’s something that can be worked into most tattoo design motifs.
Celtic Cross Tattoo
The art of the celtic cross tattoo dates back thousands of years when the early Celts showed an amazing talent for metal working and craftsmanship of all kinds. The celtic cross tattoo is usually made up of several of what are called celtic knots, which are never-ending loops and circles which are meant to symbolize the cycles of reincarnation and death. The never-ending loops and circles also stood for the physical as well as the spiritual and represented the permanence of love, life and very often faith.
The typical theory of people from North America is that they will wear a celtic cross tattoo as a way of remembering their descent, but I say that for the most part that is probably not true. Most people who get a tattoo are younger people and they do it because they like the way the tattoo looks and not for anything having to do with their lineage. Maybe when they get older they will claim that, but when they were young and got the celtic cross tattoo, I think they were simply being impulsive, with no hidden meaning what so ever. There are lots of very cool designs of Celtic Crosses out there so shop carefully before choosing yours.

This tattoo almost has a tribal feeling with the geometic designs they used, look at the patterns repeat themselves until you have a very complex design. I like the feeling this celtic cross tattoo presents when you look at it. I like the spiral effects the design gives off when viewed up close. You will notice on this celtic cross tattoo it has a some what religious feeling about it. The cross and the jewels remind me of a crown symbol of sorts. If you notice the weaving of the curls it makes this celtic cross tattoo look like it is for the common man and not of royalty. I believe this style of celtic goes back to the 8th or 9th century when celtic designs were used very often through out most of old europe.
I have a celtic cross tattoo on the back of my right leg. I have always felt anything celtic gave off the feeling of love and admiration to another. I like this tattoo a lot, probably better than the one I have on my leg. I might have to do another on my other leg and try to use some of this design to better it this time around.

Wing Tattoos
I usually like wing tattoos a lot but I am not sure how I feel about this set of them. Apparently on the back of a guy, which is a little strange, these wings seems to be formed by what appears to be long and thin root type of material rather than be made up of wings covered with feathers which one would normally expect to see. I have never seen a set of wing tattoos just like this before and while I do find them interesting I don’t really like the design very much. I prefer the traditional looking wings.
These are meant to be angel wings of some type I am sure but I do not know what type that may be. This strikes me as something that would come out of the woods or the trees or something like that. I am not at all sure and I am not going to guess. All I can say is that they look earthy. If anybody out there know what these are meant to be I would love to hear from you. Really.
There are many different styles and types of wing tattoos and this is a picture of one that you do not see very often. It’s a much smaller one than what is popular now and only takes up a small part of the back of ones shoulder. I can only guess as to its meaning and to the meaning of the intertwined rings in the middle of these wings. The wings are probably meant to be angel wings and that typically stands for a supernatural being who is looking over us and looking out for us. It can also stand fro grace and beauty and possibly the whimsical ability to fly away whenever the world get to be too much. We’d all be flying away if that were possible, wouldn’t we?
As far as the rings go your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps they are meant to stand for a bonding of sorts. A joining of two souls if you will. Or perhaps the connection between two hearts. Something having to do with love and a relationship I would think. As far as wing tattoos go this much smaller on could be a good alternative for someone who wants one that doesn’t cover the better part of their back.

Tribal Back Tattoos
Tribal Back Tattoos
Now this here is a very complete example of what tribal back tattoos look like when they are completed. And this one is a pretty wild looking one, isn’t it? And is it just the way I am seeing it, or is that tattoo meant to be making a big face? Do you see it? I certainly do. Maybe the face of a warrior. Maybe the face of a dragon. I don’t know, but it sure is a face just the same. Eye, nose, mouth, forehead. They are all there as clear as day to me.Maybe this is not a warrior face or a dragon. Maybe it is meant to look like one of those warrior masks, the ceremonial style masks I mean. That much I would believe if someone told it to me. Of course I would tend to believe anything I was told about tribal back tattoos because I really don’t know much.
Whatever kind of face it is meant to be forming, this tattoo is a good tattoo and it’s hot. It looks good and it makes this person look good and frankly I am a bit jealous of this person and their ink. It’s time for me to start looking into one of these tribal back tattoos for myself.

Evil Tattoos
When people talk of evil tattoo designs they are usually referring to either horror tattoos, as the one shown in the picture, or tattoos that use pagan symbols. This latter category of tattoos mainly deals with the fact that what may be called as "occult". These images are in association with the white witchcraft which has another name called Wicca, the Viking Runes, The Tarot and other magic craft and prophesy. Images like the pentacle which is a five pointed star, or the Athame which is a double edged blade that is used for white witchcraft. There are also images in relation with the four elements which are the fire, water, earth and air. All of the above mentioned images fall under the Wicca tattoos. Many people tend to think that these occult gothic tattoos are evil tattoos. For all those who think like this let me make you clear that what you think is absolutely wrong. These images neither have evil qualities nor do they have anything to do with so called ‘Satanism’. These images are just the signs of prehistoric religions in the medieval period, which gothic tattoo lovers dig out and celebrate by getting these designs etched on their bodies in ink. And the horror designs are not evil tattoos either, nor they do they represent a serious sociopathic personality. It’s just a design that’s cool and shows one’s love for the horror genre.Evil Tattoos
When the topic of evil tattoos are mentioned in public circles, it’s usually in reference to classic horror designs depicting demons and ghouls or tattoos that are of an occult nature. The former characterization is what the grim reaper design in the photo alludes to. It’s a cool design but is far from being an evil tattoo. The grim reaper is a potent symbol of death and a graphic reminder of the transitory nature of life. The grim Reaper and the skull were often used as symbols in medieval and renaissance art as a stark reminder of the fact that life is finite and hints powerfully at the afterlife that awaits us. The grim reaper is often associated as an agent of Satan or the devil, but this is not necessarily the case. The grim reaper is death. Whether the soul goes to heaven or hell or ends up in purgatory depends on the kind of life lived by the recently deceased. So, as you can see this design is by no means an evil tattoo. It’s just symbolic of it’s deeper intrinsic meaning and because of that it often stirs feelings of discomfort in people who view it. But, how seriously can you take the design when it features the grim reaper riding a motorcycle. A cool tattoo? Most definitely. An evil tattoo? I really don’t think so.Thursday, February 4, 2010
