5. Hasapiko
The hasapiko (Greek: χασάπικο, pronounced [xa sapiko],ˈ
meaning “the butcher's [dance]” from Turkish: kasap
“butcher”) is a Greek folk dance from Constantinople. The
dance originated in the Middle Ages as a battle mime with
swords performed by the Greek butchers guild, which
adopted it from the military of Byzantine era. In
Constantinople during the Byzantine times, it was called in
Greek μακελλάρικος χορός (makellárikos horós, "butcher's
dance", from μακελλάρioς “butcher”). Some Greeks,
however, reserve the latter term only for the fast version of
the dance.
6. Hasapiko
The slow version of the dance is called χασάπικο βαρύ /
χασάπικος βαρύς (hasapiko vary or hasapikos varys,
"heavy hasapiko") and generally employs a 4/4 meter. The
fast version of the dance uses a 2/4 meter. It is variously
called γρήγορο χασάπικο (grigoro hasapiko, "quick
hasapiko"),[citation needed] μακελλάριος χορός
χασαποσέρβικο (hasaposerviko), the latter in reference to
Serbian and other Balkan influences on this version of the
dance.
served as one of the bases for the Sirtaki.
