Archeological evidence affirms that the dance heritage in India dates back to at least 5000 years. A dancing girl figurine was found in the wreck of Mohenjodaro, which must be made in approximately 2nd Century B.C. Many group-dancing sequences are illustrated in delicate rock paintings of Bhimbhetka caves of Madhya Pradesh. The Apsaras or the Celestials dancers are inscribed gorgeously at the gateways of Sanchi. The wall paintings of Ajanta and Ellora, the temple walls of Hoysala dynasty, the sculptures of Khajuraho are ample proves showing the popularity of Indian dances since decades.
