Tattoos were also used as a form of medicine by the ancient Egyptians, but elsewhere body art took on a more cultural role. As the English began to explore the world, tattoos took on a new meaning. At the end of the eighteenth century the name "tattoo" was traced back to a series of voyages across the Pacific made by Captain James Cook.
