Sarawak Iban tattoo 4

An indigenous Iban man uses the traditional technique of 'hammering' a tattoo with bamboo sticks for an Italian tourist in the Malaysian state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo. The tattoos have spiritual significance for Iban, or Dayaks as they are also known. But it is a dying art and skill. And these days, Westerners now seem more interested than young Iban men in getting traditional tattoos like. (Footage by First Freedom/Getty Images)
