Tattoo stamp - Aso - Iban Dayak - Indonesië

The art of tattooing is highly developed among the Dayak Tribes. They tattooed on their body, arm, fingers, feet and thighs. In addition, some Dayak men have tattoos on the throat as a symbol of courage. The designs are first incised on a wooden block and stamps on the skin, finely pricked/tattooed with a needle and painted. Tattoos serve as a magical protection to keep away bad spirits, a symbol of masculinity, success in warfare, combat identification and status. Both men and women have tattoos, especially the aristocrats.r
