Covering of the mid section is not true. I have a Masters in Anthropology and this is a TOTALLY FALSE statement. Someone needs to do their homework. :-( I agree with Charlene.

I wish the interviewer had been able to use "my words" a little more carefully. She did a great job asking me lots of brilliant questions! It just didn't seem to translate into the article as well as I had thought it might. I do think that she did a great job translating what she understood of our conversation. Your specific comment (above) regarding the legitimacy of whether or not the first bellydancers danced bare-bellied or covered is not something that I claimed any authority on, in the interview. Oh, and, you're right, I am not a dance ethnologist. If you are, I'd love to read some of your research! I'm very interested in knowing more and more about the industry that I know and love so much!

There's just no way to prove that. Maybe some dancers early in recorded history, for sure, covered their mid sections. Seems like a non-sense way to kick off what could have been a legitimate article. Any dance ethnologist will disagree with the assertion that the first belly dancers covered their mid sections.
