What are roman numerals?

Roman numerals originated in ancient Rome. The numbers in this numeric system are represented by different letters from the Latin alphabet. They usually rely on the decimal system, as the numbers are being written according to the tens, hundreds and thousands through different letter combinations. The roman numeric system uses seven symbols, each of which has a fixed value. They are as follows:

  • I – 1
  • V – 5
  • X – 10
  • L – 50
  • C – 100
  • D – 500
  • M – 1,000

What is the meaning of roman numeral tattoos?

Roman numeral tattoos can be used for many different reasons. The use of this numeric system indicates history, as it is often used on monuments. What’s more, unfortunately, it is very rarely used today. The roman numeral system has been gradually replaced by the arabic numeric system, which is much easier to use. So, if, for example, you have lost someone you love, you can get the date in which you lost them tattooed on your skin. That way, you will always keep their memory and always remember this date as an important moment in your life.

Another great use of the roman numeral tattoo is to remember a happy date in your life. Whether it would be the date of you children’s birth, or the date you got married, it is a beautiful way of saving the date forever. Furthermore, many newlyweds choose to get matching tattoos of the date they got married. These types of tattoos are also seen as a promise.
