Recreating a tattoo from the “Siberian Ice Maiden?” I’m not so sure about that.

There has been a lot of buzz about the frozen body of a 2,500 year old Pazyryk woman, known popularly as the “Siberian Ice Maiden.” She was mummified and then further well-preserved by the Siberian permafrost. The permafrost also preserved her tattoos well. One of the tattoos depicted a deer that appears to be flying.
