North African Women’s Traditional Body Art Volume 3: Tattoo
This is a book of historically accurate and period appropriate North African women's tattoos, a popular women's adornment prior to 1950. The women who had these tattoos usually wore a covering modesty covering over their nose and mouth, their tattoos were mostly on the forehead.
