Godna, also known as Khoda, is an ancient traditional form of tattoo art originating from the tribal communities of Northern and Central India.[1][2] These tattoos are characterized by intricate designs and vivid colors, often depicting elements of nature, mythology, and daily life.[3][4]
The art of Godna dates back several centuries and has its roots in the cultural practices of rural communities in India. It is traditionally practiced by women and often involves passing down techniques and designs through generations.[5][6] Tattooing is found in many primitive tribal groups like Baigas, Oraons, Birhors, Saharias, Asurs, Bhumijas, Mal Paharias, Korwas, Mundas, Santals, Konda Reddis, Khondas, Chenchus, Bharias, Kurumbas, Irulas, Bondos, Juangs, Mankidias, Sauras, Lodhas, Mudugars, Paniyans, Kattunayakans, Mannans, Muthuvans, Kanikkarans, Todas, Bhoksas, Rajis, etc.[7][8]
