Tribal Tattoo designs are some of the most popular and far-reaching tattoo designs that are available today. Although the name Tribal Tattoo Designs implies that the tattoo designs are based on ancient tattoos of tribes people, this is not the case and these Tribal Tattoo Designs are more based on fashion than anything else.

Tribal Tattoo Designs started off in the form of "real" tribal tattoo desings - derived from ancient tattoos found on tribal master's mummies. These tattoo designs were often non-uniform and were not written down or recorded by the civilisations which applied them. The tribal tattoo designs of these times were often so decomposed that most of the tattoo design could not be seen, thus causing tattoo design artists to invent their own designs.

The tribal tattoo designs found on ancient mummies were not tattooed in the modern way, in that it is believed the tribal tattoo designs were made up by the tattoo artist, or even the tattoo design client. Because these tribal tattoos were not uniform or even tattooed in a "clean" fashion - tattoo artists decided to take the basic design and structure of these early tattoos and apply them to a modern, fashionable way of tattooing.
