"Faith embodied: a tattooed individual from medieval Ghazali" co-authored by Kari A. Guilbault, PhD Candidate in #Anthropology, following her discovery of the "Christ" tattoo in October 2023, was published in Antiquity through Cambridge University Press. "It is rare to find how religious someone is," Guilbault told the College of Liberal Arts. "Because we have the skeletonized individual, we're able to know more about that person and, potentially, what religion meant to them versus an imposed state-sponsored practice."
