Tattoos
The history of tattoos begins some 5000 years ago and continues right on up to "Miami Ink" on The Learning Channel (TLC) and "Inked" on Arts & Entertainment (A&E)!
The first tattoos probably were created
by accident. Someone had a small wound and rubbed it
with a hand dirty with a fire's soot and ashes.
Once the wound had healed and the mark was visibly
permanent, an industry was born!
The historical record is brief, but does include:
Bronze Age
