Yes, the Zulu tribe traditionally practices scarification as part of their cultural and social identity. This form of body modification involves making intentional scars on the skin, which can signify various aspects such as status, beauty, or tribal affiliation. While scarification has been less common in contemporary times, it remains a significant cultural practice among some Zulu people.
