This blog will try to cover most of the common tattoo designs. There will be many that I haven’t been able to find any information on.

Not all designs will have any tribal meaning. Some will be just designs that an artist has rendered and has had made into a tattoo.

Many tattoo designs will have meaning in other cultures. I will try to touch on these meanings. While I have tried to make this tribal, there are many groups that use tattoos to identify their group. These groups aren’t necessarily tribal, but are a group of people who identify with each other, so could get considered a tribe.

I will try to give credit to artists who have created a design if I can find the information. This information isn’t always available.

Some of the designs will have different meanings to different tribes. I have tried to give the information that is available as far as what each tat might mean to different groups.

If anyone has designs and background information that they would like to post on here, please contact me. I will be happy to include it.
