It's difficult to determine whether or not the Australopithecines had rituals (it might be worth considering what is meant, exactly, by this term) given the fact that the species that comprise this now extinct genus lived between 3.7-1.9 Mya.With small cranial capacities compared to their body size and presumably small pre-frontal cortices, I'd suspect that they might have displayed some limited ritualistic behaviours, perhaps while grooming or foraging in the same way that some chimpanzees (P. troglodytes) have been observed to hand-clasp, for example, but in light of the great time depth at play, and the fact that it's unlikely evidence of ritualistic behaviours would necessarily be preserved in the fossil record at all, it's difficult to answer with absolute certainty one way or the other.
There is no concrete evidence to suggest that Australopithecus engaged in ritualistic behavior. Their brain size and anatomical features suggest a more primitive and less complex level of social behavior compared to modern humans, making it unlikely that they had rituals in the way we understand them.

They help individuals navigate life transitions, express emotions, and connect with something greater than themselves, such as tradition, spirituality, or a shared history. Rituals also reinforce social bonds and promote cohesion within groups.
