Sak Yant is a Thai culture since ancient times. It is believed to have existed before the Sukhothai Kingdom and the prototype was probably from Khmer art around 1,400 years ago. It is performed by using a sharp needle that has been dipped in ink or oil piercing through the skin to inscribe characters, symbols or patterns. If ink is used, it is called ink Sak; if oil is used, it is called oil Sak (Bo) because there is a superstitious belief that one can be free from all danger, be lucky, be invulnerable from all harm and have a stable mind.
