Tattooing started at the dawn of human existence. There have been preserved bodies with tattoos and tattooing tools found by archeologists that date back at the very most 7,000 years, but it is highly supported that it was practiced for much longer than that. On a side note, the Old Testament which refers to the marking of the flesh a sin...states that the earth is at very most 5,000 years old...tad bit of confliction there.

Which makes more money tattooing or piercing?

depending on ur skill at tattooing, tattoos will make you more money, but most people start off with peircings and work an internship with a tattoo artist. Response : You need to know much more about anatomy and the bodies ability to heal as a body piercer, more so than in tattooing. Body piercing is good money but you need to know your stuff and you need to be ready to learn everyday. It isn't a jumping off ground to get into tattooing as previously mentioned, if you want to tattoo stick to tattooing but if you want to pierce than be ready to learn put the time in to gaining the knowledge.
