These Japanese tattoos were from the mid-thirteenth century, and were thought to have been started as penalties for convicted villains like thieves and murderers, or indicated people belonging to the mafia.

The most common themes are mythical animals, Buddhists, Suikoden scenes and geishas. (Link)
