Hora pojorenilor

Hora (plural Hore; same as Greek Horae), is the name of an ancient circule dance which has
survived up to today in Romania. In the ancient times, naked women danced it. In Romania three
clay depictions of this dance were found, two of them showing five dancers and one showing six
dancers. The last one, the most famous, was found at Bodesti-Frumusica in Moldavia. All of them
date from 4000–3000 B.C. The village of Pojorâta is in the region of Bucovina, at the foot on Mount Raru, in the department (judeţul in Romanian) of Suceava. The village, seven kilometers west of the city of Câmpulung Moldovenesc, stretches along a valley of beautiful landscapes.
