Tattooed Human Mummies Database, Version 5.0

The following presents a global data set identifying naturally- and deliberately preserved tattooed human remains from the archaeological record. The initial version of this list (Version 1.0) was compiled in 2016 for inclusion as Table 1 in the journal article “The World’s Oldest Tattoos” (Deter-Wolf et al. 2016). Benoît Robitaille, Lars Krutak, and Sébastien Galliot all contributed to that initial effort. Changes between versions are detailed below.<b><br></b>Entries in the data table are organized broadly by date, and rely on direct dating wherever possible. Where radiocarbon data is available, dates represent calibrated ranges. Each entry also includes documentation as to the associated archaeological culture, site, and significant source material. Citations are not comprehensive. At the present time, historical European examples, unpublished and/or unprovenienced specimens from museums and private collections, and deliberately-preserved historical skin samples are not generally included in the data set.

以下为一套全球数据集，收录了考古记录中经自然保存与人为保存的带纹身人类遗骸。该列表的初始版本（1.0版）于2016年编制，作为期刊论文《世界最古老纹身》（Deter-Wolf等人，2016）中的表1收录。伯努瓦·罗比塔耶（Benoît Robitaille）、拉尔斯·克鲁塔克（Lars Krutak）与塞巴斯蒂安·加略（Sébastien Galliot）均参与了该初始版本的编纂工作。各版本间的变更详情如下。数据表中的条目大致按年代排序，并尽可能采用直接测年数据。若存在放射性碳测年数据，其日期均为校准后的年代区间。每条条目还会附带相关考古学文化、遗址及重要来源材料的说明。本数据集的参考文献并未穷尽收录。目前，欧洲历史时期的相关标本、博物馆与私人收藏中未公开或无溯源信息的标本，以及经人为保存的历史时期皮肤样本，均未普遍纳入本数据集。
