    From the article:

    It is only the second time that a tattoo has been found from medieval Nubia

    I think that makes it a little rare

          You’re right, that’s dumb, I’m removing it. I was just thinking about how it’s frowned upon to have super visible tattoos in some places in our society, but that’s obviously not going to be apples to apples throughout history.
