Always double-check your conversion before it becomes permanent. Tattoo artists are great at lettering but not always at Roman numeral math.

人们认为罗马数字起源于手势和计数标记。笔画I代表一根手指，V代表拇指和手指之间表示五的间隔，X代表交叉的双手表示十。字母L、C、D和M来自希腊字母chi、theta和phi的变体，分别代表50、100、500和1,000。随着时间推移，这些标记演变成了今天人们所熟知的拉丁字母。罗马字母表中没有0，因为数字0的概念直到印度在大约公元600年 / 10600 HE发明之后才完全发展起来。
