Maypole Dance
Maypole dancing is a form of folk dance from western Europe, especially England, Basque Country, Finland, Sweden, Galicia, Portugal and Germany,According to the polemic anti-Catholic pamphlet, The Two Babylons, the origin of the maypole dance began i n ancient Babylon during sex worship and fertility rites. However, as documented in the book review, "THE TWO BABYLONS: A Case Study in Poor Methodology", by Ralph Woodrow, which appeared in volume 22, number 2 (2000) of the Christian Research Journal (Article DC187), Two Babylons author Alexander Hislop was an exceptionally poor researcher who "picked, chose and mixed" portions of various unrelated myths from many different cultures. For example, he wrote that Nimrod was married to Semiramis although she lived 2,000 years later. More
