Ceremonies.

                                                                                               Abenaki Indians had a lot of ceremonies.

                              Some Shoshoni Indians prove how brave and strong they are to become a warrior. They cut their skin and put string through their skin. Then they were hung by their skin and string. But also being forced to look up into the sun until the rope breaks and they fall to the ground. Plus they are not aloud to cry or complain if they really want to become a warrior.
