Yeah it's similar to Ogam (old Irish) Ogham (new Irish). They are NOT runes. No relation. But that is me being picky. Where it's not correct for
Ogam is there is no line in the middle to tell you which Acimie it comes from. But yes somewhat similar. I have some Ogam in a Tattoo on my back
(it's more than just the words).

There is a picture at the parlour me and my wife use, they have a picture up with similar patterns, there where a few more on that one though, might
be worth noting they only do tattoos for the Pagan faith, so that may help my wife is starting a new piece in a week or two, I will grab a photo of it
and post it if your interested?

Well, the most accepted theory is that his were an early form of acupuncture, as the bones near all his tattoos had arthritis.
Now, they obviously werent medicinal for me, but I find the ancient human marvelous. They were exactly the same as we are, but lived in such a vastly
different lifestyle, and had no knowledge of anything outside their world. I just find the primitive lifestyle to be fascinating.
When I was younger, I always wished that I would be born 1000 years in the future, with all the cool gadgets and technology. I was really into
technology in middle school, and some high school. I even got very good at computers.
Then, one day, I simply woke up and hated technology. I was about 16, and i'm now 20. Now, obviously i'm still techno-dependant, but I actually
sympathize for the future generations. I could never live in the far off future. I'd rather live 12,000 years ago with my dog and my farm.
