  • ahahahh,this is a mixed arabic and indian and aryan dance and has nothing to do with Hat shep Sout dance . You are so funny ! The ancient-egyptians migrated again in Land of Punt , now , Ethiopia and Somalia . And they preserved the ancient-egyptian culture , language and dance ! So , go visit East Africa and don't be deceived by the euro-asiatic invaders and their narrow-dance ! Hatshepsout made an expedition to the land of Punt ,their ancestral Homeland now in Somalia & Ethiopia ! So ,think

  • @sajokal20 Indeed, you're very right. The ancient Egyptians came from Ethiopia. But this is not a dance of 3 million years ago! In the end we all came from Ethiopia.

  • @abdelhazim or didn't we?

  • @abdelhazim It would certainly be a great idea to see a coloured dancer do the choreography to Hatshepsut. Feel welcome to...

  • Indeed, a reminder of this is the numerous statues of cats in ancient Egyptian culture.

  • so the hands are representing snakes :)

  • @ShaaRhee : indeed, the snake was a sacred symbol in ancient Egypt. Snakes protected against famine because they kept the rodent population, mices and rats down and reduced as such also the spread of diseases. So Kings wearing an ureaus (cobra) on the crown symbolised the power to protect their people against famine and diseases.

  • @irmar "all the time thinking it was a man", that's indeed a compliment for the dancer. Hatshepsut was a female pharaoh who had to act like a man, she even appeared with a beard to exercise the power of the pharaoh. So this female dancer really captured the spirit of the story of Hatshepsut. She was one of the greatest rulers of ancient Egypt, if not the greatest.

  • Hatshepsut is the Pharaoh who was a woman but dressed as a man, right? She even has a bread in her tomb and stuff. Well, I think, because it's a girl dressed in male clothing, it works well with the story... butI may be wrong.

  • @abdelhazim which color are u speaking of?

  • @ShaaRhee the serpent represents higher conciousness. hence why it is situated on the third eye, or pineal gland. also seen as standing upright, the serpent has also been said to represent the kundalini energy in the human body attaining higher conciousness. the word kundalini literally means "coiled"

  • @abdelhazim afro semitic occult nonsense

  • Its great that the CEREMONY power of woman in ritual dance is returning, and the sex aspects of dancing is leaving

  • She got the grace and fluidity of a mental retarded elephant.

  • It's really necessary to use the frontality rules to make the dance moves too? haha'
