In Sicily The first known account of the ceremony dates back to 1877 in Monreale in an article in the Giornale di Sicilia in an account about the Stuppagghiari, an early Mafia-type organisation. Other early accounts were during a trial against the Fratellanza (Brotherhood) in Agrigento (1884) and the Fratuzzi (Little Brothers) in Bagheria (1889).[3]
One of the first life accounts of an initiation ceremony was given by Bernardino Verro, a leader of the Fasci Siciliani, a popular social movement of democratic and socialist inspiration, which arose in Sicily in the early 1890s. To give the movement teeth and protect himself from harm, Verro joined the Fratuzzi in Corleone. In a memoir written many years later, he describes the initiation ritual he underwent in the spring of 1893:
[I] was invited to take part in a secret meeting of the Fratuzzi. I entered a mysterious room where there were many men armed with guns sitting around a table. In the center of the table there was a skull drawn on a piece of paper and a knife. To be admitted to the Fratuzzi, [I] had to undergo an initiation consisting of some trials of loyalty and the pricking of the lower lip with the tip of the knife: the blood from the wound soaked the skull.[3][4]
Soon after Verro broke with the Mafia and, according to police reports, became their most bitter enemy. He was killed by the Mafia in 1915 when he was the mayor of Corleone.[5]

'Ndrangheta is complicated,it is separated into 2 societies, Minor society and Major society. Then you have 'La Santa" which is like secret society within secret society.
Minor society
1. Giovane d’onore - It's not a real rank but it is assigned to babies born in 'Ndrangheta families,one day they can become full members.
2.Contrasto - trusted associate
3.Contrasto Onorato - literally means honored associate
4.Picciotto d'Onore - Lowest rank , just someone who is running around executing orders.
5.Camorrista - same like number 4,but with more trust and experience, and they are given orders/tasks that 4. cannot perform.
6.Sgarrista or Camorrista of Sgarro - Camorrista with important position,last rank in Minor society.
Major society
1.Santista - first and lowest rank of Major society
2.Vangelo - Also called "Evangelist",these are members that complete initiation, they swore allegiance to 'Ndrangheta by putting his hand on a photo of the gospel.
3.Quartino
4.Trequartino
5.Padrino o Quintino - highest rank of 'Ndrangheta meaning "The Godfather".
There are some more ranks discovered in 2010,regarding highest members of 'La Santa'. Politicians , freemasonry members,secret service members can become part of 'La Santa'.

Conte Ugolino Thanks for this @Snakes. Btw, Im not sure if they are spelled right but did you even came across terms such as “capintesta” or “capintrito” ? The term "capintesta" allegedly means a boss or a chief of a certain area, while "capintrito" allegedly means a sub-chief who controls certain districts for his area boss. Again, Im not sure if the terms are spelled right or if they really exist. I also have few more examples such as “tammurro” which allegedly means a beginner, followed by “picciuotto” or aspirant, and also "masto.”
