Many ancient cultures have initiation rites and rituals.

I believe that cultures have initiation rites and rituals because it then considers the person a part of the culture and then the culture can truly see them as a part of them.

Most tribal cultures have similar initiation rites and rituals.

Such as, dance, hunting, body paint.

Aboriginals, African Americans and other tribes, still celebrate these ceremonies today.

I believe that they still do this as it was the way that their ancestors initiated and it’s a bit of ancient culture.

Yes these cultures have initiation ceremonies that have a spiritual element to them.
