Pashto attan,

Attan originated as a traditional dance from the Pashtun tribes, who were primarily populated in Afghanistan and Pakistan. They descended and reigned there as the dominant Ethnolinguistic group for about 300 years. Hence, Attan, their original folk dance, was considered a very important form of art by the Afghans and they started to perform it during wars, rituals, and celebrations. However, it further got modified into a Muslim dance of the soldiers, as it presumably allowed the dancers to get closer to 'God' before they advanced on their missions. In addition to the traces of this origin, there is also a Greek myth associated with Attan. According to the Greeks, Athena was born out of Zeus's head with a sword in dandaakiald in thaatbar Thaans You're incognito
