A little more tattoo history
When European travelers returned from Polynesia to Europe they brought with them stories of fabulous skin art and images that had been developed to show the way he looked. A number of these travelers were even taking some of these tattoos, people became more and more fascinated with the concept. The sailors were especially willing to test this new art form.
