Background
A description of the experience
The Fish was a Totem animal. After a great deal of deliberation and a lot of dead ends, we have concluded it represented the Element of Water.
T C Lethbridge – Painted Men
tattooing in ancient Europe appears to have taken the form of the clan animal or symbol. Even some Greek clans were tattooed in this way. Some of the Highland clans were certainly totemic. We have the Epidii (the horse people), the Orc people (the tribe of the boar), while Clan Chattan (the men of the Cat) remains to this day and gave its name to Caithness.
