Tattooing in North America has its roots in ancient traditions and was practiced long before modern aesthetics.
Before colonialism spread across North America, traditional tattooing was used by different nations to express family lineage, clan crest, social rank, relationship to territory, hunting and fishing rights, and more.
Tattoos were used for more than just body signage. Tattooing and pigments were used for medicinal purposes, too. Some tattooing and pigments were even used to memorialize and honor ancestors who were wiped out in natural disasters.
