The Tattoo Encyclopedia provides the first comprehensive overview of tribal tattooing across history, continents, and ethnicities. Each group, clan, or community that practiced tattooing had its own places where people prepared for tattooing or where tattooing was performed. Tattoo sessions were accompanied by music, songs, or other rituals. They had tattoo artists and their assistants. Of course, they used various tattoo tools to carry and apply the designs. Last but not least, they also used different ingredients to obtain the inks for the tattoos. For all this, the different communities had their own names and terms, in their own language or dialect, and it is these terms, including descriptions, often already lost in history, that this book presents.

The human desire to adorn the body is universal and timeless. While specific forms of body decoration and the motivations for them vary by region, culture, and era, all human societies have engaged in practices designed to augment and enhance people’s natural appearance. Tattooing, the process of inserting pigment into the skin to create permanent designs and patterns, is one of the most widespread forms of body art and was practiced by ancient cultures throughout the world, with tattoos appearing on human mummies by 3200 BCE. Ancient Ink, the first book dedicated to the archaeological study of tattooing, presents new, globe-spanning research examining tattooed human remains, tattoo tools, and ancient art. Connecting ancient body art traditions to modern culture through Indigenous communities and the work of contemporary tattoo artists, the volume’s contributors reveal the antiquity, durability, and significance of body decoration, illuminating how different societies have used their skin to construct their identities.

Evocative and symbolic designs based on the ancient tradition of Polynesian tattoo art. The beauty of Polynesian art is perhaps most evident in the tradition of Polynesian tattooing, which has existed for more than two thousand years and is infused with rich symbolism and spiritual meaning. Roberto Gemori designs tattoos reflecting this tradition, drawing from each person’s own history of personal struggles, adversities, and triumphs. In his approach to tattoo art, Gemori takes the meaningful moments of a person’s life story and weaves them into a creative design, such that the tattoo itself becomes a form of personal empowerment, representing qualities a person is working to cultivate in their life and challenges they have overcome. The author presents here modern tattoo designs inspired by Polynesian art to color and contemplate for inspiration and transformation. In addition to a short introduction on Polynesian art and symbolism, the book features 42 designs for coloring, each accompanied by a description of the image’s unique meaning. Color these stunning designs and discover the depth of Polynesian art!

"For thousands of years astonishingly rich and diverse forms of tattooing have been produced by the Indigenous peoples of North America. Long neglected by anthropologists and art historians, tattooing was a time-honoured traditional practice that expressed the patterns of tribal social organization and religion, while also channelling worlds inhabited by deities, spirits, and the ancestors. This book explores the many facets of indelible Indigenous body marking across every cultural region of North America. As the first book on the subject, it breaks new ground on one of the least-known mediums of Amerindian expressive culture that nearly disappeared from view in the twentieth century, until it was reborn in recent decades"--Page 4 of cover.
