    I'm from the ivory coast so i'll explain. The dance is named after Djela Lou Zaouli (Djela daughter of Zaouli), the daughter of a chief. She was rumored to be the most beautiful woman of her time. That's why the masks are painted with colorful and feminine traits, as well as gazelle's horns. The gazelle is a symbol of feminine beauty. They created the mask to pay homage to her beauty.

      1. So, this "Zaouli" was a chief, and "Zaouli" was his daughter.
      So, could we call "Zaouli" a "princess"?
      2. Now, that is a _man_ doing that dance celebrating her beauty.
      Is he not a little embarrassed to be playing the part of a girl? 😒

      @@TheNoiseySpectator her full name is Djela (beautiful) Lou (daughter of) Zaouli. And no, this is not embarrassing since the creators of the danse themselves were probably men.
      Also, in Africa, women do not dance under masks. It's reserved for men.

      @@TheNoiseySpectator and about whetherto call her a princess, in western ivorian tribes, we don't have monarchies but democracy. The chief is elected among the respected members of the clan so since he isn't technically a king, I wouldn't call his daughter a princess.

What an experience witnessing this spectacle! You can see how African rhythms have spread all over the Caribbean, Central and South America, not to mention North America.

    I'm a white woman from the states (married to an African performer from Zimbabwe) & I can honestly, say after living with my husband for the best (8) months of my life with him in Zim, there is no place on the planet as magical as Africa...It was soooo unbelievable & the people soooo beyond kind, when I had to return to the states in 2016, I cried hysterically all the way back. Though we've been in the states for 6 years now, not a day has gone by, I don't dream of returning & finally we are going to try to return permanently. The cultures, the animals, the beauty is astounding there. God bless Africa.

    Beautiful piece. Most African drums talk, you only need a shared cultural background to understand the language of the drums. This is what scholars call speech extension. The dancers actually or most likely are communicating somehow.

    Similar to Igbo traditional music from Enugu.

    Igbos were even rapping traditionally especially when they gave eulogy at burials!

    I might be mistaken, but I believe this dancer's name is Loh Samuel and he also dances in a purple outfit with white and purple leggings. Whatever the case, and whoever either dancer is, he is the best I have seen at this kind of dance, in these videos. He can appear to be sliding/moon walking, in any direction he wants, with either or both feet, with the really high speed bouncing off the front of his feet. Simply amazing.

They dont need to look at each other with their eyes yet the music and the dance are completely ONE. the dancer is very respectful shows ultimate intelligence of the higher forces! I am totaly K.O. by this video.
