It was also used to enter churches, as a pass code. It was used to mark Christians, so Christians can know and identify each other with this little cross. We started the tattooing tradition back in Egypt, where we used to tattoo Christian Copts with a small cross on the wrist. Wassim Razzouk: We are a Coptic Christian family. Tell me about the beginning of this great journey. Your family has been in this business for 27 generations (28 with your sons).
