Ancient Egypt--this is why you see a lot of the Gods depicted as human with the head of an animal---this was more likely a priest wearing the "head" of the God they were giving ceremony to. Rites were done especially at death, along with mummification rites.
I think the Aztecs did as well--not sure though.

It would probably be from a tribe somewhere in Africa or south America. Many countries have had those ceremonies in the past but I don't really know it they are still doing it... There is the voo-doo culture in Haîti I think too

I could be wrong but I believe there are many countries with tribes in Africa who still have celebrations/ceremonies that involve such things.
