Traditional Tribal Tattoo Art
Tribal tattoo art is a quite interesting phenomenon with a vivid past and continuing future. With important tattoos including the tribal gods and the sun and the moon, the flowing designs and mystical art were also a way to differentiate between tribes. From tribal face tattoos to Soviet chieftains strategically tattoos, to Native Americans using tattoos to symbolize time spent in battle, tribal tattoo art is one of the common threads of all humanity. Within the past four centuries with the wider focus on the purity of the trend has the tradition died a bit throughout developing nations, as well as most of the West. Tribal tattoo art is something worth looking further into, and would be a quite interesting thesis topic.
