Early religious dance in ancient Rome mainly refers to the men's group dance, and the clergy's spring planting dance, there are training strong body and learn to fight, combat weapons dance. There were times when these two dances were danced separately, and there were times when they were combined. In ancient Rome, there was a group called "Sari" (which is a Latin word) that specialized in this dance. This term refers to both the dance and the dancers, as well as the monks who cleared the fields and led the combat training. The dances are usually performed in March and October of each year for a period of three weeks. During the performances, the performers, dressed in embroidered tight-fitting tunics and tall pointed hats, walked and danced in the streets, armed with wooden shields, singing hymns and walking in a variety of formations. Mr. Coulter, the historian of dance, says: "As a matter of fact, there was no dance to be performed by this type of troupe, although Plutarch, the Greek biographer, did praise them for the beauty and softness of their movements. The dancing priests used a staccato rhythm of three beats to a bar, 'similar to that of the cloth bleachers,' which may be recognized as iambic pentameter. As an orthodox dance form, it has a leader, two teams of singers and dancers, one older and one very young, who follow the leader as he moves in a circle to the rhythmic sounds of the percussive band. We can conclude that it is a well-crafted movement, otherwise the Greek rhetorician Lucian would not have called it the most solemn of dances."
