Many piercings that appear to be a <b>vertical tragus</b> piercing are actually <a href="/index.php?title=Surface_Piercing" title="Surface Piercing">surface piercings</a> located immediately in front of the tragus. These can be done with a curved barbell as well, but are prone to rejection. The chance of rejection can be reduced by using surface bars, as well as having the piercing done by an experienced piercer. Even under optimal conditions though, they can still reject.

Modern Primitive, the term created to define atavistic practices in a modern cultural setting, was originally coined by west coast practitioner/shaman Fakir Musafar. Used to describe himself and a handful of others, the "ideal" Modern Primitive feels a closeness, even a "past life" tie to the body rites practiced by indigenous tribal people.
Favored tattoos include large neo-tribal black shapes that fit the contours of the body, with earlobes, septum and labret usually stretched to conventional sizes.
Modern Primitives generally seek the spiritual side of modification, from private modification rituals to adding a ritual setting to conventional piercing procedures.
Note: Publishers Juno & Vale borrowed the term "Modern Primitive" for their landmark and best selling book Modern Primitives.
