ORIGIN OF DANCING

SOCIAL SCIENTISTS BELIEVE THAT DURING PREHISTORIC DAYS DANCING MAY HAVE PLAYED AN IMPORTANT PART IN HUNTING AND MANY OTHER ACTIVITIES.AFTER KILLING A PREY THE HUNTERS WOULD HAVE SWAYED IN A RHYTHMIC WAY OUT OF JOY WITH A NOTE AT THE TIP OF THEIR TONGUE.FURTHER JOINING THE BIGGER GROUP BACK HOME THE CEREMONIES WOULD HAVE GEARED UP THE CELEBRATIONS.
AS WE DELVE DEEP INTO THE SMITHEREENS OF VARIOUS CULTURES SCATTERED ALL OVER THE WORLD THE KINDS OF DANCES A PEOPLE DO-AND HOW AND WHY THEY DOTHEM- CAN REVEAL MUCH ABOUT THEIR WAY OF LIFE.
