Pix code: [email protected] Since ancient times, dance has been part of human history. Initially, according to some archaeologists, it was a sign of physical exuberance or a primitive attempt at communication, and later as a form of ritual: to celebrate the forces of nature, the changing seasons, in worship of the gods, in fertility rites, etc. In Egypt, the invention of dance was attributed to Bes, a god who protected against witchcraft and favored a speedy birth. His figure, as well as that of the goddess Hathor, patroness of dance, are found on papyrus scrolls and in drawings inside pyramids. Both gods derive from entities from primitive fertility rites practiced around 5000 BC. When the hieroglyphs were translated, we learned about the ritual honoring Osiris in the city of Abydos. The rites lasted eighteen days, and their representation remains a tourist attraction to this day. The performance consisted of a plowing and sowing ceremony in which priests, musicians, and dancers entered the temple in a solemn procession, performing, with masked pantomime dances, the death and resurrection of the deity. Adorned with fantastic headdresses, they welcomed the resurrected deity and the sprouting seed from the soil with shouts of joy. Abydos hosted the cult of the Mysteries of the god Osiris, the first ruler of Egypt in mythology, for over two thousand years. The Festival always took place in the last month of the Nile River flooding, and its records reveal the first signs of dance in Egyptian civilization. The Abydos festivals were held according to hieroglyphic instructions, ensuring the repetition of a pattern. The careful repetition of the ceremonial led the Egyptians to develop their first graphic notation of dance through hieroglyphics. Several records suggest that Egyptian dance was severe, angular, with some acrobatic movements, such as the bridge: feet and hands on the ground supporting the arched body. Belly dancing is certainly one of the most recognized aspects of Egyptian culture worldwide. This is because it became a dance that became popular worldwide. Interestingly, some cultures personalized the dance, making it part of their culture. Dances were so appreciated as entertainment that it is not surprising that there were professional dancers. Female participation seemed to predominate, at least when it came to religious dance. Drawings, high reliefs, and statues depict female dancers, often in pairs, standing out among the group of instrumentalists. The musical accompaniment was provided by a sistrum, a percussion instrument that produces a rattling sound, usually made of bronze, along with a flute and drum. The dances were initially entrusted to women, but later reliefs show clappers setting the rhythm for a group of dancers advancing in a line, with their arms raised, hands joined at the fingertips, palms facing upward, or instrumentalists playing harps and a type of flute while others appear to snap their fingers. Although originally linked to worship, dance also served as entertainment for the aristocracy. There are countless images of female dancers paying homage to the powerful, from the first dynasties until the end of Ptolemaic rule, when Egypt was conquered by the Romans.
