We can admire a stylish and well drawn tattoo but did you know that many of the standard patterns and designs have a history? Some of the designs are quite ancient though many are modern and the pictures of ships and aircraft are clearly in a different area but seamen sailing the seas hundreds of years ago saw that various tribes around the world used tattoos to distinguish themselves and the sailors started following suit.

The history of tattoos suggests that initially they would have used many of the original tribal designs which were then adapted by european tattoo artists. Today we have designs available to us from India, Japan, China and the polynesian islands together with many others whose origins are lost in the mists of time.
