The blue tattoos of Britain warriors and other "barbarians" in northern Europe were made from woad. It is used as medicine to help heal cuts and other wounds that are inflicted during battle.

It's also used to make dye for textiles and can stain the skin, giving the wounds a decorative look, very popular in the warrior cultures.
