The History of Tattoos
Notas del episodio
Tattoos have existed for thousands of years, long before they became linked with sailors, rebels, celebrities, or modern fashion. In this episode, we trace the history of tattoos from the ancient world to the present day, exploring how different cultures used them for healing, identity, religion, punishment, status, and self-expression. From Ötzi the Iceman and ancient Egypt to Polynesian tatau, Roman stigma, Victorian tattoo fever, and the rise of the modern tattoo studio, this is the long and surprisingly complex story of ink on skin.
