An excursion into history

The first people in the world to depict the panther on their own bodies were American Indians, fearless warriors. In their understanding, the animal symbolized good military training and strategy.

This is interesting! Ancient people believed that there were two kinds of panthers. The black panther, as we imagine it now, and the yellow panther, the jaguar.

Representatives of different countries, cultures and religions perceived the black predator very differently:

  • The Mayan Indians revered the animal and saw it as some kind of higher power. The panther and jaguar were used in religious rituals, animals were often depicted on totems and high priests wore their skins for important ceremonies.
  • The ancient Chinese, on the contrary, were wary of the panther and considered it a cunning, crafty and cruel animal.
  • In Europe, it was believed that the panther was a powerful protector against evil forces, including dragons.
  • In ancient Egypt, the panther was often depicted in human form, symbolizing a slender, graceful, graceful woman.
  • Jaguars and panthers were revered in Africa as symbols of family, home, and hearth, because animals are able to fight fearlessly for family and offspring.
  • Representatives of the Christian faith, treated the big cat negatively, believing that it is a werewolf and has a bad connection with the otherworld.

Varieties of the animal and their features

For the right choice of the sketch is not enough to know the meaning of the tattoo, it is necessary to intelligently select the type of animal. For example, panthers are divided into yellow and black, which can dramatically affect the interpretation of the image. The first type includes jaguars and leopards, associated with light and warmth. But the black panther tattoo represents the night under the cover of moonlight. Of course, all kinds of animals inspire fear and arouse admiration for their beauty. In China, however, only the black panther, capable of protecting the people from dragon attacks, was particularly revered.

But the Mayan tribes were especially fond of the jaguar, equating it with a divine being. The skin of the killed animal was used by shamans for rituals. And also by leaders trying to increase their power and authority. For them, the predator served not only as a killer but also as a wise warrior capable of discovering new opportunities. Equally respectful to the leopard are representatives of Africa, where tribal leaders are simply obliged to have such a pet. As for Christianity, the panther is a symbol of sin and treachery, betrayal and human meanness.
