  "story": "The Lanna volume this site quotes says the evidence for the leg tattoo is in the murals of important temples, and promises examples. Wat Phumin is the best known of them: its wall paintings are the standard illustration of northern dress, northern faces and northern skin.\n\n*Inference —* a mural is evidence that a painter expected to see marked legs, which is not quite the same as evidence of any particular man's marks. It is strong for pattern and weak for detail, and this site treats it that way."
