Body art is well documented in the native cultures of far North America. Alaskan women in the 1700's were decorated with facial tattoos and piercing in the septum and lips.

Many men of Kodiak Island wore piercings and tattoos associated with hunting and war exploits.

In the 1800's hunters in parts of Canada and Greenland would tattoo themselves as protection from the spirits of animals. They hunted and also as respect to those animal spirits.
