Maori on women's chin and lips

 These are traditional Maori women, they had key significant jobs. They could not have full facial tattoos or fight in war, they were seen to be very sacred because they would provide their tribes with generations to come. The women were not allowed to be near the carvers or carve at all because of their menstrual cycle. Women played a key role int he Maori culture, the Moko tattoos on women were mainly on their chin but if she had them on her nostrils on in between her eyebrows she was very important.
The more tattoos you had the higher rank int he tribe you were, they told your story, where you were born, what tribe you belonged to and what you did.
