Every member of the Tribe receives a naming ceremony at the age of 5.
At 8 they follow hunting parties to watch and question and learn from the adults.
At age 10 they have to recite all they have learnt from the verbal lessons.
At the age of 16 The child must go out and make a solo kill in the desert. They return an adult. If they fail they are sent on a foraging. Go out and find something useful, new hunting grounds, a new town to trade or don't come back. A number of youths fail every year.

Hunting Techniques
As for behavior of the tribe, here is my idea: the Hipparion tribe, historically, was known for herding / riding hipparion, utilizing them for food and a nomadic lifestyle in the desert, as well as combining flashy spear / axe / thrown weapon techniques with their mounted advantage to hunt (interesting note: dragoons in real life were initially mounted cavalry).
I think it's safe to say at some point the hipparion became extinct, but the lifestyle of the tribe remained similar - still using spears / axes, but no longer with the aid of being mounted or being able to herd animals for food. I think they could easily be both known for dragoon and marauder-type techniques.
