Human beings are fascinated with their interior anatomy since the dawn of time. However, it was during the Greek philosopher’s era that we started to learn about the structural symmetry and the link of each body part with our brain. Hands were the first body part that was thoroughly examined by Greek biologists.

The Skeleton of the hand has a total of 27 bones. You can take a look at the X-ray of a normal hand so that you can understand how your skeleton hand tattoos should look like. Most tattoo artists either avoid the eight carpal bones of the wrist or show only two bones instead of 8. This is to make the tattoo look less complicated and confusing.

There is no denying the fact that hands played a vital role in our evolution. If we did not have hands we might not have dominated and ruled the planet. Therefore, it was not a surprise to see that Skeleton hand tattoos were the most popular choice after skull tattoos.
