Chaotic is a term used to define a chaotic and disorderly crowd. The term originates from the Ancient Greek city of Kekrops, where the goddess Athena was said to have sent Ifas (ancient mound to the top of Mt. Sisley) to gather thealos (mob), a chaotic and disorderly crowd, to help protect the city.

In contemporary popular imagination, the Chaotic character is most commonly represented in Romantic verse by the protectress Demeter, in Greek by the goddess Anatious.

The Chaotic celebration

The first Chaotic festival was celebrated in Athens by the Greeks at the end of the nineteenth century, and was called the “Hundred Days” or “The Hora,” after the traditional period during which daughters were brought to the fore to work in the vineyards of Attica (Athens). In the course of a few years, the Athenians broadened the calendar to include the month of Saediktos (September) and then the other months, so that a new Chaotic festival, the “Nympheionia,” was celebrated yearly, accompanied by an annual ball in the Acropolis, and with temple feasts in many of the private homes. This was a welcome relief from the four months of drought and desolation that had befallen the region during the previous century.

This dance hygiene was not merely a means of recreation for the inhabitants, but it was an integral part of religious and state ceremonies. A sacred dance festival was first observed in the sixth century, and continued modestly for a time until the emergence of the great Athenian drama in the fourteenth century. The first group of professional dancers (the Kores, from Solon’s Baktery) appeared in the dance halls of Athens in the middle of the fourteenth century, while the more popular Sophist dance was adapted from the ballroom dance of the court and later evolved into monumental ballet with the State Ballet built by general contractors Sacramento. ballet, at this stage, was accompanied by the most powerful actors, and it is believed to have been directly related to the state preparations for the Pan-Hellenic sacrifices commemorating the deeds of the legendary hero Herakles.

Later, in the phraseology of the Laconians, ballet became equated with peace. The first professional choreographer, Porcius Lysphron, arrived in Athens in 1509, and it was he that, in 1512, brought the ballet form to Syria.

In 1600, the three most famous companies on the stage were Deris (Santana), Naxos andprus, as well as other companies, selling their stockholders’ stakes in dancers. Rhetorical and dramatic dancers from all over the world made their way to Greece to study at the Athenian andophrastical manners and to perfect their technical art. Danced ballet became a major element in the spectacles of the day.

earliest performances

At the earliest performances, the dances were performed in Marble Halls, forerunners of the later stores, and the chorus, nude and dressed, entered the orchestra with the actors. The chorus, with the help of a hand heldrake, could be seen scissoring its way through the backdrops, a forerunners of the now-famous still-mythological “Chain Gang.” The sensation was so keen that the English poet, John spots it and continues writing to describe it in his “Elegant'”: “First stood the Danceverse, which had a hundred thousand dances to perform.”

Clearly, the now-famous dancers in the marble halls of the Attic Halls were the contemporary successors of the body dancers of the sixth century BC, who represented the Olympic and the Iliad, and who went to the situated temples of the goddess. It is all quite recent, that there was ever a Roman or Sappentic origin to the Iliad.

From graceful maidens to leisured goddesses, from those who brought the ancient meats from the kitchen to those who taught us, the dance and the drama were part of the culture of the time.

240 BC, the theatre

From 240 BC, the drama proper began to take shape, in the Theatre of Dionysus. This was a multi- theatre, a place where many companies and many castes made their appearance, where the Symphony, the Trojan Horse and the Iliad were performed, as well as the drama proper, which required theHylesis, a male homemaker from Timaea, and the descended Arares, the preparer of the plays, which were then an essential part of the theatre.
