Noone invented the tattoo as such. Instead, it is a widespread social custom. The Ainu, the indigenous people of Japan, wore facial tattoos. Tattooing was widespread among Polynesian peoples, and in the Philippines, Borneo, Africa, North America, South America, Mesoamerica, Europe, Japan, and China. Popularity of tattooing continues in most of the world through the present day. Tattooing declined in Europe during the spread of Christianity.

Tattoes originated in polynesia and was adopted by sailors that visited the polynesian islands. It was originally called "Tatau" and was worn mostly among warriors. Tattoes covering at least half the body was performed on young boys as they became men and the art of tatau was a passage rite... from childhood to manhood. Each mark had a very distinct spiritual meaning.
