The ceremony would invoke a short recitation along the following lines:
We gather today on the land settled by one of the twelve tribes of the Jewish people named [insert name of Tribe] 40 years after being freed from slavery in Egypt 3500 years ago.
We acknowledge the Tribe of [insert name of Tribe] its Leaders, their successors and tribal members in establishing and building the Jewish National Home on this land.
Am Yisrael Chai.
... The people of Israel live.
The ceremony could open each session of the Knesset and Supreme Court, each school day assembly, communal, individual and sporting events and welcome travellers at Ben Gurion Airport.

Sign posts identifying each tribal areas boundaries' could be erected.
The possibilities are endless.
The message sent to the world would be clear and unequivocal.
