The art of tattooing has been around for many thousands of years. The first documented history of tattoo use was in Egypt. Egyptians are believed to have used tattooing as a means of keeping track of human property. Tattoo designs have been used as a means to keep illness at bay and they have been used to identify one as belonging to a particular clan or group of people. They have also represented many cultural rituals from all over the world including Asia, Greece, Europe, South America and eventually they were used in the Industrialized West though many centuries had passed before they made their appearance.
