Kurdish tattoo

[Natsidruk]

Hello my kurdish brothers and sister!
Recently I have been considering to get a tattoo, and as my first tattoo, I want it to be something of kurdish.
But I don't know what. I have had some thought about the kurdish flag, or just the kurdish sun, but I don't know yet...
Someone who got any good idea? or maybe some pics that could inspire me?

I know and its a very important part of our culture. I was fascinated when I first saw this kind of tattoo on a Yezidi Kurdish woman from Mardin.

I've noticed that it's only the older people that has those tattoes, seems like the younger generation does'nt like them.

I am not sure if it has to do with Hurrians. When I first saw it I thought it has something to do with "satanism" because of the jagged motives till I got older and red more about it. Than I found out that almost the same tattoos were used by Scythians too and for the same reasons. (protection from bad eyes and ghosts).




Later I found out that Croatians have also tattoos, they even have exactly the same symbols.





Later I found out that Celts were also known to have tattoos all over their bodies.


And than recently when I was watching a movie " The Ring of the Nibelungs". I was surprised and stunned to see exactly the same tattoos on exactly the same body parts (hands, fingers, arms, face ) of the actress playing an old Viking woman.




I dont know if the Vikings did really have such tattoos or if its just coincidence what I dont believe. I am curious if Central Asians do also have such tattoos.

Since Celts, Vikings, Scythian and today Kurds and Croatians have this culture it must have something to do with a common origin. If the Hurrians did also have these tattoos than this could only mean that they had more to so with Indo-European origin as we thought before.
