Before getting your tribal tattoo you should research the meaning or significance of your chosen design. You should know everything from the tribe that your design originates from to the meaning of its symbols. Certain maori patterns symbolize a way of personal identification of the maori individual. By copying their symbols and designs you are stealing part of their identity, this is seen as an insult by the Maori people. If you want a Maori style tattoo design you should find an experienced artist who knows about Maori culture and get them to design your tribal tattoo that has the look of a moko (tattoo design) without the symbolic ties.
