Year 3250 BCE. A well preserved frozen iceman body was found covered in 61 tattoos at the elevation of over 10, 000 feet in the permanent glacier of Italian Austrian Alps 5250 years later. Same year 3250 BCE. Several Egyptian mummies covered in multiple tattoos were found in the Egyptian Valley of Kings 5 millennia after departing to the afterlife. Year 2000 BCE. A tattooing shop in the ruins of the temple in ancient Southern China was discovered 4, 000 years after the earthquake destroyed it. As we can see various forms of body art were practiced by ancient humans for at least 6, 000 years, perhaps, much longer. Yet for the last several centuries tattoos and body art became tabooed and were considered deviant behavior until making an amazing comeback in various vivid forms in the late 20th century. Today with help of Igor Kryan book Taboo Tattoo you can delve into the worlds of stunning body art stretching from the dawn of mankind tribal art to the future cyberpunk digital world.
