Celtic Design Tattoos - Not Only for The Irish

Tribal tattoos are pretty much the most common tattoo designs ever to be painted on human flesh. The first dated human to wear a tattoo was found in Italy – that tattoo over 5000 years old. Since the dawn of men – we were living together as tribes, having a tattoo was a saying about: who you are where you are from and what your status is within the tribe. No wonder then, that in the past five years the Celtic design tattoos have become one of the most popular flash art tattoos. Today there are thousands of Celtic symbols - each design has its own unique pattern and meaning.

Should you want to have a Celtic design tattoo, it's as easy as ordering pizza. Today there is a vast verity of symbols and designs one can easily find on the web, and with the growing internet community you should have no difficulty finding yourself a Celtic tattoo and even have a tattoo designed especially for you. There are also a lot of books – both about tattoos and other subjects - dedicated only for the Celtic designs.

Celtic tattoo art is inspired by traditional and original designs. For many years the Celts have mastered their skills in Knot work to perfection and although it is commonly believed to be an Irish craft – the Celtic knot work actually originated in India.

A Celtic design is a pattern which consists of a series of knots, when every knot pattern has a unique symbolic meaning taken from the Irish Celtic craft tradition. Until this day you can take a walk anywhere in Ireland and see for yourself the amazing level of perfection in the designs carved in the stones all around you. Tattoo designers all embrace themselves the unique style of the Celtic tattoos.

Today there are endless variations of the Celtic knot work and designs, and there are even more interpretations of each one. The Celts themselves didn't leave a lot of evidence regarding the interpretations of the symbols. Almost all interpretations were added later in history by all sorts of scholars and archaeologists studding the Celtic culture and by people who wanted to promote their business (such as tattoo shops, designers and souvenir outlets).
