 This piercing was first brought into the public eye in Fakir Musafar's "Body Play", in the same issue that also showcased the Industrial Piercing, the Apadydoe, and a large dermal punch in the outer conch.Fakir Musafar added, "The Daith piercing was co-created in 1992 by Erik Dakota and a Jewish woman piercing client with a metaphysical bent....
