Add to this the addition of the Mag’har (MU and AU) and you may also find that some of these old traditions are present or being revived to some degree. It is also worth noting that the Frostwolves and Warsong clans may have retained a greater measure of clan identity and culture despite operating under the umbrella of the Horde. And while, as others have commented, traditional clan rites and identities seem to have faded in the face of a more “modern” Horde nation-state, given the continued existence of shamans we may perhaps assume that some measure of shamanic ritual, and a general tendency toward an animist orientation, persist, to whatever degree, whether in new forms, forms that harken back to clan heritage, or some blend of the two, especially as a shamanic renaissance was one of the basic thrusts behind the New Horde, as well as being a part of the cultural common ground of the Orcs, Tauren, and Trolls. You’ve already mentioned Om’riggor, and while you can glean a few more scattered details from Orcish archaeology stuff in game, and perhaps a bit more from some of the novels, there just isn’t a whole lot to work with specifically.
