I have a tattoo of a rose on my right ankle. It's small but cute.
Really! I also have a tattoo on my ankle, it's a rose as well. Funny how tattoos used to be regarded by people like sailors and criminals that would get tattoos. Times have changed over the last 100 years!
Really so only criminals used to get tattoos? What was the purpose of them?
Oh, yes, I guess it was a show of their power and lack of fear. Now, the negative stigma has changed and people from all walks of life get tattoos and it's considered perfectly acceptable.
That is interesting how things change. When did people first start getting tattoos?
Tattooing has been around since Neolithic times. Archaeologists have actually found mummies with tattoos! 
Wow so they have been around forever huh? That's amazing that even mummies have the tattoo preserved. Is it known what culture first started using tattoos?
I can't say, but I recall that the oldest discovery of a human's remains with a tattoo was Otzi the Iceman, which dated back to around 3100 BC!
