There are so many Egyptian symbol tattoos because the ancient Egyptians used symbols for expressing ideas, rather than words or letters. These symbols are called ideograms. They made very detailed symbols that carry significant meaning to them. They go from a simple line to a very detailed color drawing of nature and what it means. Some symbols they used were the ankh, scarab, Ba, primordial hill, eye of Horus, Djed, and Anubis. Egyptian tattoos represent a wide variety of cultural tattoos that you can get.

Tattoos of Egyptian Symbols

The above mentioned Egyptian symbols make good tattoos because of the meaning behind them. The ankh represents eternal life; it is a cross with a hole at the top of it. The scarab is a dung beetle which represents spontaneity. The Ba is an Egyptian bird that is decorated and represents personality and perseverance. The primordial hill is 2 sets of steps that meet at a flat surface on the top. The eye of Horus is used to represent the god Horus, who lost his eye during a war. Anubis is the dog headed god of the dead, which is a symbol for protection. And djed is literally the backbone representing human life. It symbolizes power and strength. There are so many more symbols that can be defined but these are the most common ones that people get. If you are going to get an Egyptian symbol tattoo, make sure to do some extensive research on what you are going to getting. Egyptian symbols that are only slightly different can mean very different things. You may think a tattoo is pretty, and discover that it means something you would not want to express! Here are some Egyptian symbol tattoos and designs.
