Batok, batek, patik, or batik, among other names, are general terms for indigenous tattoos of the Philippines. Tattooing on both sexes was practiced by almost all ethnic groups of the Philippine Islands during the pre-colonial era. Like in other Austronesian groups, these tattoos were made traditionally with hafted tools tapped with a length of wood (called the "mallet"). Each ethnic group had specific terms and designs for tattoos, which are also often the same designs used in other artforms and decorations like in pottery and weaving. Tattoos range from being restricted only to certain parts of the body to covering the entire body. Tattoos were symbols of tribal identity and kinship, as well as bravery, beauty, and social or wealth status.

  • Die philippinische Stammestätowierung (auch Filipino Tribal Tattoo genannt) oder Batok ist eine bis in die vorkoloniale Zeit der Philippinen zurückreichende Tradition mehrerer Ethnien, für die vor allem die Kopfjägerstämme der nördlichen Kordilleren Luzons bekannt ist. Gängige Motive sind geometrische Elemente wie Linien und Kreise oder Tierschuppen, Tiere und Himmelskörper. Neben Tätowierungen wurden in einigen Regionen ebenso Skarifizierungen durchgeführt. (de)
