'''Tattooing''' is a process by which a pigment, usually [[ink]], is permanently implanted under the [[skin]] by piercing the [[epidermis]] and depositing the ink into the [[dermis]]. Effectively this means that the middle layer of skin contains ink which is protected by the upper layer (when fully healed).
 
There are archaeological records of tattooing going well into pre-history. Several [[Tattooed Mummies|tattooed mummies]] have been found all over the world including [[Otzi|Otzi]] the tattooed iceman who dates back to 3300 BC and the [[Egyptian Mummies|Mummy of Amunet]] from Ancient Egypt. The word itself is thought to be sourced from "tattau", a [[Tahiti|Tahitian]] word which translates essentially as "to mark".
