Cool ink.

Always wanted to get a tat of Quetzalcoatl.

Kinda discouraged these days as my sister did some looking into and believes we might not have much, if any, Indian in us. Might be more Spanish than we thought.

I have Ometeotl, its becoming rather common which kinda pisses me off...

the aztec designs have soo much detail that the tats are best done on a larger scale, and it takes longer and thus hurts more

...there's no way you are full blooded Indian or Spanish at this point in the game all the blood is mingled...I'ld step back & ask myself, "Do I really dig Quetzalcoatl so much I want to ink him on me?" if the answer is yes, who cares what percentages of what DNA you possess...you know? Like, I have an Ankh, I am not an Egyptian..but I am Eternal.

Creole is a peoples of majorly mixxed decent...Native Amer., Africans & French. They are from the Southern reaches of what used to be the Louisiana Territory...

Mexico has nothin' to do with Creol.

There's no evidence of that happening..but I heard they did exploring & trading with the peoples in what is now our South..if they lived there, they would have built things.

eh someone else told me they all spoke some laungage that started with a t and that was proof enough to him...I have no idea I don't care about race really

I am human race lol

although thats debatable

tribal tats are my fav style

[Rev.Reverence]

I was just sharin' info...

..& I was talkin' about ancestral backgrounds...not race. WE know there's One Race of Humans.

Rev's right. I'm not Hindu but I have the Ohm tattooed on my back. It's moreso for the Creation symbolism behind it, not the religious meanings.

[Homicidalheathen]

I hear the argument all the time.

'First they come and take our land, then try to rob us of our culture...religion and heritage.'
