The origins of tattoos

Do you know the tattoo origins?  The first known example of a tattoo was from about 5500 years ago.  There was a mummy found frozen in the ice that had little dots actually tattooed in the skin.  I find that extremely fascinating.  That means that tattoos have pretty much been with mankind since we first got out of our caves and began checking out our world.  I love tattoos, and am glad that they have such a rich history.  I still find it funny for those people that still look negatively on tattoos.  There is nothing wrong with decorating one’s body to look unique.
