The part forgotten in the comments is that the haka is also a dance to ask the spirits for help

I think it's something quite unique to Polynesians. I'm not sure if other countries could adopt anything genuine enough of their own that would be on par with the haka, siva tau, teivovo etc.

Don't they do this as a greeting? to let you know who you are facing.
