Theres also been a few tattooed saints and kings, and tattoos devoted to the Lord are considered praiseworthy. There’s a shop in Jerusalem still using the same St. Michael stencil from ages ago, that pilgrims used to tattoo themselves with.
In certain Coptic sects it’s a requirement to have a Christian tattoo, and the Eastern European countries have traditional Christian tattoos because the ottomans didn’t want them when marked.
There’s also a big tradition to it in Italy and Spain.
