“Marks of identity- Tribal tattoos in Southeast Asia”

Until recently tattoo practice is widespread among the peoples of Southeast Asia. In my presentation based on my own experience in conducting fieldwork research in Asia, I would like to take a closer look at the historical roots of this tradition as well as its contemporary condition. By unveiling the structure of the symbolic meanings of tribal tattoos in Southeast Asia, I would like to bring this phenomenon closer to a wider audience.
