  5. samoarepping says:

    yo samoan tattoos are the best. and plus samoa made the word tattoo. tattoos were firstly from samoa. but every polynesian country is the same, they all migrated from savaii, samoa.

  6. tOKEDIs says:

    uso, I think you need to to open your mind more and see the world around you. Are you implying that the polynesian language is derived all from samoan? I don’t think so. In relation to Samoan tattoos being the best, I would assume that it would come down to personal choice e.g. Maori Ta Moko, Marquesean Samoan etc each have their own uniqueness which is pleaseing to the eye. Also read up on migration of the Polynesian/Lapita peoples you maybe surpirised!

    Sike, Sole every culture had their own form of tat’s, and uso’s weren’t the first. Ask any tufuga and they’ll tell you the same thing, our pe’as were influenced by tahitians. Even the sogaimiti describes the journey from another island… If anything Egypt outdates our ink by a couple hundred years…

  9. Waltah says:

    Egypt might have outdate us (Not sure if that even true) but we made it look good!! Would you agree? Actually in the other parts of this doc some monk in india had the oldest known tattoos….if im not mistaken.
