Archäologische Funde
Der erste wissenschaftlich fundierte Beweis in der Haut eines menschlichen Körpers wurde
1991 nahe dem Hauslabjoch in den Ötztaler Alpen dokumentiert. Seite 9.
Ich weiss nicht was der Autor mit wissenschaftlich fundiert meint. Sonst, auch vor 1991 gab es schon Funde von tätowierten Mumien. So.von Ueberdosis » 23.06.2014 17:31

Decorative tattoos are fairly common in human mummies. The oldest known tattoo dates from 6000 BC from the south American Chinchorros culture, and shows a thin pencil moustache tattooed onto the upper lip of a male adult.
But this mummy also has some tattoos that don't appear to be decorative - circles of different sizes placed at irregular positions on her neck. They aren't particularly pretty, and would have been hidden by her hair.
Konrad Spindler, an archaeologist best known for his excavations of Otzi the Iceman, wondered if they might have been part of a medical or therapeutic ritual, perhaps to ease neck pain. He made drawings of the tattoos (see top pic) and brought them back to Europe, along with samples of skin punched from the tattoos.
Maria Anna Pabst from the University of Graz, Austria, and her colleagues used various microscopy techniques to investigate what the tattoos were made of. The decorative markings were made of soot, which is quite common for ancient tattoos. But the dye in the neck circles consisted of partially burned plant material. It's the first time that two different kinds of tattooing materials have been found in the same mummy (Journal of Archaeological Science vol 37 p 3256).
Acupuncture points and meridians passing the zone of the circular tattoos in the neck region of the mummyPabst told me that this is strong evidence the neck circles were meant for a separate purpose from the decorative tattoos. "If you use different materials, they have different functions," she says.

Tattoo
Your touchings
Has tattooED my skin
My skin
Has tattooed my blood
Who was just passind through IN.
My blood has
Tattooed my heart.
My heart
Sent it into my skin
From where has gone,
Leaving
The other side of skin
To be wiped
By other touchings.
