The history of celtic tattoo designs
Celtic tattoo designs are steeped in history, it is the culmination of many different cultures which had a great influence on each other, which in turn created a brand new and quite radical art form. It has been said that the Romans had a great influence in the invention of the Celtic tattoo designs when they conquered Ireland.

The Christian priests began entering the country and they would try to convert the Celtic people, the Celts themselves had no form of written language at that time, but they did have a form of very unique symbols, which they would use to express themselves in a very visual way. It is not sure whether they used these symbols in the form of celtic tattoo designs as we know them today, but they may have just used paint or ink to mark their bodies.
The use of Celtic tattoo designs today has become a very popular way for people to decorate their bodies, as some of the designs do have a certain amount of meaning.
