Quote:I know there were some problems with the idea of woad as body paint, but I believe there's literary evidence for some kind of painting/scarring/tattooing in north Britain between the 3rd and 8th centuries. Or has that been discredited too?
It must be authentic, because we see blue Woads in the film King Arthur. :dizzy:
