Descrição: While taking an inventory of stored artifacts excavated in Utah in 1972, archaeologist Andrew Gillreath-Brown thought he recognized one: a tattooing tool. That previously overlooked find dates to nearly 2,000 years ago, making it the oldest known tattoo implement from western North America. The tool consists of a wooden handle bound at one end with split leaves of the yucca plant that hold in place two cactus spines, each stained black at the tip.
