Copts, Crusaders, Franciscans, Armenians, Dragomans and pilgrims have ensured that the tradition of sacred tattooing in this city has been continuous, without interruption; so much so that even today in Jerusalem a family exists that for many centuries has continued to tattoo ancient drawings on the skin of pilgrims.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45535578882199,"sku":"9781658209526","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781658209526.webp?v=1767675096","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/jerusalem-tattoos-tradition-and-designs-9781658209526","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
