Who was the first person to have a tattoo?
Needle tattoos have only been around for less than 100 years. Body art/war paint has been used for thousands of years, going back to the Bantu tribes in Africa, Mayans in America. A concrete example of ancient tattoos was found on the mummified body of a man, which is dated to be approximately 5,000 years old, in the Alps on the Austrian-Italian border having over 50 tattoos on his body. The tattoos are located at points where his body was subjected to considerable strain during his lifetime and very likely caused him a lot of pain due to wear. The tattoos were probably intended as therapeutic measures rather than as symbols. The tattoos indicate that the man had undergone pain-relieving treatments on multiple occasions.
