native American war dance :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-stkMRVkCIU another one in which the weapon ( axe) has similarities with the pre columbian axe from the Maya and Aztecs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA0bTp677gk and 2 Cherokee war dances https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEl-yJQvXaE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJvrAPMEVlY seems the Cherokee nation was very music talented as they had some great musicians amongst them like f.i. blues legends Charlie Patton and Champion Jack Dupree, Rickey Medlocke from Blackfoot and Lynyrd Skynyrd and last but not least James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix... |

beautiful the kampilan dance; such elegance ! the left hand movements / technique at 1:53 reminds me of my old pentjak silat days, many years ago...

many, especially rugby lovers, know the famous Haka of the Kiwi's ...
but this one I dare say is more interesting as it shows the dancers in full regalia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Y59JIObk_U the shield at 1:08 looks very much alike like the shield used by the Moluccans |
