Summary
| DescriptionKaragattam.webp |
English: Karakattam is an ancient folk dance from Tamil Nadu, India. It is a praise dance for the rain goddess Mariamman. The dance involves performers wearing colorful saris and balancing a pot (karakam) on their heads while dancing. The dance is typically performed to the accompaniment of traditional Tamil folk music. The dance is said to be a mixture of multiple forms of Tamil dance forms like Bharatanatyam postures and mudras. It is referenced in the Sangam Literature, a collection of 2381 seminal poems composed from as early as 300 BC. |
