War dance in the history of Arabs | folkloric dance The war dance is similar to the war show today. It is a type of folk dance that is held annually in some societies, and they perform it in their folk festivals to imitate their ancient victories. War dance is famous in Arab history as well as North African countries as well. The oldest theatrical performance of the war dance was by the ancient Egyptians in the celebration of “Heb Sed“. Some scholars say it is a war dance in ancient Egypt, however I say it is a war performance instead, because it belongs to a ritual performance. Most of Arab countries design the choreography of war dances today to remind them of the heroisms that their society performed during wars in the past, and they also changed the forms of movements to suit their public celebrations.
