Athena, the Greek goddess of peace, war, arts, and wisdom, was said to have given the olive to humans. From these mythic origins, early Olympian athletes were crowned with olive branches. In the Old Testament, it was an olive branch that a dove returned in its beak to Noah, symbolizing that dry land had been found, the flood waters were receding, and God and man had reconciled. In the New Testament, Jesus prayed and accepted his mission to die for the sins of humanity in the Garden of Gethsemane (i.e. garden of the "olive press" at the base of the Mount of Olives).

Any olive branch tattoo would almost immediately convey that meaning.
