This time the theme of which I speak is a choice, it is a bit difficult because I would say several things but in English it's hard, so I'll opt for a topic not as controversial but not of my interest and perhaps some friends too. The subject I chose are tattoos, it is known that the art of tattooing the skin is very old, a while ago I read in wikipedia that a mummy found in the Alps dating from the second century after Christ and this mummy was fifty-seven tattoos on the back, but it is said that in this case did not have a reason as most of ritual tattoos, but the position in which they found could have therapeutic origin and occupying a place similar to acupuncture points .
Also Egyptian mummies found with tattoos, but in this case were the most tattooed are women and they served as symbols these tattoos protectors and as a way to interact with the gods.
But tattoos have usually been part of rituals of different cultures, such as the Polynesian, the East, the Latin American and also in North America.
Personally I like tattoos, I like to leave a historical record on the skin, I like being reminded of the past through a colored scar, so this year I got my first tattoo and I'm very happy about that. c:
