When you start analyzing the origins of ancient and timeless traditions you quickly start realizing that a lot of them were invented more or less from scratch a few decades ago. Very enlightening benefit of studying history.

Most “ancient” traditions are ~70 years old. Some are from the 1980s or even newer. Really, really ancient ones might be 100 or so years old. Culture changes a lot. Yet another reason the “cultural appropriation” concern is mostly garbage.
