We
live in a diverse world. From north to south there are man countries with
people from several ethnicities and strange traditions. There are various
strange traditions, cultures, and languages in the world, In Turkey, there is a
town where people use" the language of the whistle to communicate with
each other, there is a new-made language in some parts of Africa. Every culture
has its own charm, significance, even some strange traditions, and we cannot
deny the importance of unlighted old civilizations and artistic contributions
of these vividly colourful and interesting cultures around the world.
There are different various tribes in the world with zero to
minimum communication from the outside world, they had enough with this world
and it's problems and now they are spending their lives in faraway lands, jokes
aside they never allowed modern civilization to take over their thousand years
old culture and they have been living in the same way for many years. Forget
about normal traditions, in the ride, we
will go through some of the strongest tribes and some of the strange traditions
that they follow.

There are some countries where tattoos are highly dejected, like in South Korea the young lads can have a really hard time finding a reasonable job because of this permanent printed piece of art on their body, the struggle is very real for them. There is a culture that has a history of strange tradition of having tattoos that too on the face! Maori place can be every tattoo loving Korean guy dream place. The people of Maori use Moko that is carved using a chisel, for them, this strange tradition is their way of showing their love and devotion to their family.

Lets Go to the next part of this ride or strange traditions.
Long Ear Lobes:
Every age has different and distinct strange traditions, the trend of getting ear piercing is years old and every year millions of people
around the world get their ear pierced, but in Maasai culture, the strange
tradition is little different, they go beyond their possible ways to get ear
lobes elongated.
There are 80,000 Maasai people living in East Africa. The people in the Maasai tribe use bones, sticks, or anything in their access to stretch their earlobes, they perceived it to be a part of wisdom and success. You can decorate these earlobes with traditional jewellery, umm seems fun to me.

Stretched lips:
If you haven’t yet digested enough information about the stretched earlobes do it now, because there is another important strange tradition that can be hard to swallow a pill for you, there is a strange tradition of extreme and inevitable body transformation in Ethiopia. It seems like Africa is way ahead of time than these modern beauty standards.
The young girls of Ethiopia use the disc for the elongation
of their lips, it is perceived to be a beauty standard in this tribe and it can
help girls in getting a good match of them. They use clay or wood disc to
proudly decorate this new modification.
What are your thoughts on this strange tradition? This looks like a stunt you do in your wildest dreams
Red Clay Skin and Hair in Himba:
Cosplays are a fun activity to do, and with all the
colourful dresses it gives the positive vibes of creativity. There is a tribe
in Africa (yes Again) that performs cosplay in their daily lives with strange
tradition of coloring themselves. The women in the tribe are famous for rubbing
otjize on their bodies, otjize is a mixture of ochre and butterfat. According
to them, the red symbolizes life and colour of this world.
There is another very important reason for this strange
tradition; the Himba People believe that the mixture protects them from the
harsh sun rays. So, these ladies out there have invented their own sunscreen.
So this strange tradition has its own benefits.

Not a tribe, but indeed a weird strange tradition. The young
girls in Indonesia get their canine teeth filled flat; the villagers believe
that it is for blowing away the evil spirits. The ritual is centuries old, the
girls and boys are expected to pray two days before the strange ritual is
performed on them.
The sugar cane is placed on their mouth to keep the jaws
open while the villagers get hold of these young boys and girls. The strange
tradition has gradually become a fashion trend in the village.
