Research and Planning.

History of Tattoos.• The earliest known examples of Tats were in Egypt and were

present on several female mummies dated to c. 2000 B.C.• In Borneo, women tattooed their symbols on their forearm

indicating their particular skill. • Tattoos around the wrist and fingers were believed to ward

away illness.• Girls coming of age were marked to announce their place in

society, as were the married women.

The word tattoo comes from the Tahitian "tatu" which means "to mark something."

How tattoos were processed before.

Before, in some tribal cultures, tattoos are created by cutting the design into the skin and rubbing the wound with ink, ashes or other agents. Some make them by hand tapping the ink into the skin with the use of sharpened sticks, animal bones or needles. In Japan, they still use the traditional method of inserting ink manually using bamboo or steel needles.

How Tattoos are done now.

The most common method is the electric tattoo machine, inserting ink into the skin using a needle that rapidly pokes the needles in and out of the skin The first tattoo machine was invented by Samuel O Reilly in 1891. Modern tattoo machines use electromagnetic coils which was first discovered by Thomas Riley and improved by Alfred Charles South in 1899.
