The Origin of Dance

The myths and legends of ancient China and ancient Greece say that human beings learned the dance from the emperor of heaven, or human beings were inspired by the goddess in charge of the dance to create the dance. We know that the ancient ancestors did not understand the concept of God and man as clearly as modern people do. At that time, people tended to think of those with extraordinary talents, those with wisdom and strength beyond the ordinary, or those who had made a great contribution to mankind as the embodiment of the gods, or those who were able to communicate with the gods.

Now, we know that all kinds of gods are created by human beings on the basis of their own images and through imagination. It is the gods who have created the dance, and ultimately it is we humans who have created the dance. So how did man create dance? Some scholars believe that human beings have the instinct of imitation, and dance is the imitation of various beasts' movements and habits with rhythmic movements. Some dances are also imitations of the dynamic images of some natural scenes, such as the swaying of willow branches, the rolling of the waves, the wind's fluttering and rotating, etc., people can imitate them to dance.
