This is the authentic Greek zeibekiko. How widespread is this dance in the Balkans? Especially in Turkey.

I saw a post about "Greek Zeibekiko"
A teenager was jumping around. The song from some guy Argiros.
Whatever.
A little bit of an insult to the origins.
What is Zeibekiko :
Zeibekiko, the dance of defeated men
"The zeibekiko is a difficult dance to perform.
It has no set steps.
It is a majestic dance full of inner intensity and meaning that the dancer must understand and respect.
It is the physical expression of Defeat.
The Despair of life.
The unfulfilled dream.
It is the “I can’t make ends meet.”

They have stolen "zeybek" and also They already steal our foods.
Reasonable-Guava8847@reddit
With a bit of research on google you can see that zeibekiko got adopted by greeks from turkish zeybek which is the original one. Zeybek isnt just the name of the dance but its a name for the irregular militia in the ottoman empire. They had distinct clothing to seperate themselves from civilians and this also transferred into the dance and music they made. They mostly sang about war and the bravery these men had. Zeybek existed since 17th century and was well esteblished in the aegean regions of anatolia during 19th century. Greeks adopted the style in the early 20th century.

Can someone explain how is this different from Sirtaki?
bostanite@reddit
Sirtaki is manufactured dance for a foreign movie from the 1960s and does not mean/convey anything. Zeibekiko is a dance without choreography but improvised, that evolved out of the people in the 1700s and is a way of expressing feelings.
satanicpustule@reddit
Zeimbekiko is every bit as 'constructed' as syrtaki. It was part and parcel of a repackaged nostalgia for "urban Athens folk" that Columbia hawked like hot cakes in the 60s to the diaspora.
But people don't really want to hear this, because the conceit of 'authenticity' is a calculated part of the product itself. It was quite literally marketed at people grasping at an identity.
AustereSpartan@reddit
Zeibekiko is 9/8, sirtaki is 4/4 (or 2/4, depending how you count).
WonderfulZombie1557@reddit
Musically it is way different also because the rhythm in sirtaki is 2/4 but zeibekiko is 9/8 which has three different virations depending on the speed and how thos 9 steps arranged in the musical bar.

I mean your comment is all over the place, full of generalizations and false equivalencies, but fine I will take the bait and explain two of your topics.
I am curious how you think theater is stolen? We have incredible sources and extremely detailed step by step information how the theater in ancient Greece evolved from the Dionysian festivals to the Athenian theater of 5th-4th century BC. Its evolution was known in ancient times too, Aristotle in his Poetics writes about the history of theater and tragedies. I fail to see how something that evolved slowly over hundreds of years and something we have so many sources can be "stolen", but I am welcome to see your proof.
You say the Greek gods and mythology is totally stolen and rewritten. First of all which exactly? All of it, stolen and rewritten? Including the epic poems? Then you would easily be able to show us the originals in Indian or Egyptian. Some of it is inspired yes and it's called Religious syncretism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_syncretism and is a phenomenon in literally all religions. Compare the similarities of the underworld of Hades to Hel in Scandinavian mythology and Hell in Christianity and you will see how similar they are. Compare Jesus in christianity and Islam and how Islam accepts and worships a ton of Christian figures.
I am waiting for your answer and proof.
P.S. It's cute how you deleted your other comment that said Greeks are uneducated while your own comment was plagued with all kinds of grammatical and syntactical mistakes.
satanicpustule@reddit
Greek born-and-bred, middle aged here. I absolutely loathe zeimbekiko. The reason it grasps at a supposedly 'authentic' expression of working-class existential angst is because it's almost exclusively performed by "αρχοντόμαγκες", namely people with money who want to cosplay at those things.
icancount192@reddit
I think zeimbekiko since it's a "manly" and "improvised" dance attracts people that want to take over a stage and move around to showcase themselves. I rarely see a good danced zeimbekiko nowadays, and it absolutely, unequivocally doesn't fit big celebrations like weddings because it requires a big space to dance for each dancer.
But I still think it has a time and a place, mainly small koutoukia or rakadika with 8-10 tables where when the song is right someone can stand up, express themselves and sit down when their song is over.

satanicpustule@reddit
I hang around late-night mezedadika with old friends on occasion, and I can't put too fine a point on how rib-crackingly hilarious this would look. Life in Athens isn't some endless cosplay of "Never On A Sunday". In fact it wasn't this even in the 60s.
satanicpustule@reddit
I'm an old fart and, at this point, I neither know, nor care, what qualifies as a 'good zeimbekiko'. In fact I think the resistance-to-definition is part of the schtick. It has to be this supposedly esoteric, 'mystical' experience, even though in reality it's tailored for an audience. The 'despairing rapture' pretence wears off rather quickly once they're back at the table.
AustereSpartan@reddit
Except this song is not zeibekiko, but rather kamilieriko, lol.
satanicpustule@reddit
Kamilieriko is generally regarded as a flavour of zebekiko, not that I care enough about that cork-sniffing

NoConsideration4696@reddit
Zeybek is the best...
beefdafirenze@reddit
Yes, in Türkiye it is called "zeybek". The word "zeybek" is of Central Asian origin and has no etymological equivalent in Greek, "zeibekiko" is simply a Hellenized derivative of the Turkish term, which itself points to the cultural source. In Ottoman archival records, the zeybek identity refers specifically to armed groups of Turkmen origin and is not directly associated with the Greek population of Anatolia. Furthermore, the distinctive 9/8 rhythm that defines the dance is well-documented in the Turco-Mongol musical tradition. So it became more common and wide in the Balkan region during the Ottoman era. It is a beautiful part of this shared and rich culture and music. Personally my fav dance in this region. Also Atatürk performs it really well, he was from Thessaloniki.
Liked the video too!
Fearless_Function633@reddit

A well known more modern zeibekiko from the movie Συνοικια το Ονειρο
https://youtu.be/djiHjagQKUU?list=RDdjiHjagQKUU
and an ever more modern famous zeibekiko
https://youtu.be/EXVamHhnQy4
The basic rhythm is the same and everything else changes. You can find slow zeibekika and fast zeibekika, with sad or happy words, for every issue and every man.
In the first clip from the movie a woman dances. This was taboo till 40 years ago. This is a mans dance.
Also it was for one only dancer. He ordered the dance and he should danced it with his friends keeping the rhythm by claping. It was a great insult for an other man to stand and dance.

Useful_Secret4895@reddit
Some women were allowed to dance zeibekiko. They were mostly prostitutes. Dancing to zeibekiko implied you were suffering, so a married woman dancing to it was insulting to her husband. To be fair, those establishments were mostly male spaces, and the only non accompanied women there were prostitutes.
Organic_Bit3337@reddit
https://youtu.be/HJeB6zAsKx0?is=7Lwh93PUWXJQlT7v This one is my favourite, although I am not sure it is exactly fit for zaybekiko or just very adjacent.
AustereSpartan@reddit
Both the song you linked and the one on the post are not zeibekiko, they are kamilieriko (καμιλιέρικο). They are both 9/8, but the beat is completely different.
Zeibekiko is basically a slow version of belly dance (which is 8/8), with one beat added (so it is 9/8).

The Cities Ioannina(1430), Galata/Pera(1453), Mount Athos(1424), Peloponnese(1458-1460) and many other examples decided to surrender without a fight because of how harsh Byzantine taxes and forced labor were.
Now, you guys act like we "stole". Ottomans even gave you autonomy(rule it yourself).
To compare with Latins and Byzantine during that time, it was safe heaven to be under Ottoman Empire.
Downvote this I don't care. Show me a historical evidence.
atzitzi@reddit
The issue here is not how happy we Hellenes Byzantine Grecoroman people were under Ottoman slavery. Of course our empire was collapsing and this why ottomans occupied is. When we had enough, we revolted and claimed our freedom. Look at Kurds now. This would be our best case scenario if we didn't.
What did Ottoman empire offered to the world really, what is its legacy.

All countries made mistakes and crimes. But Turkey doesn't have history only a criminal record. To deny your genocides is known, but now denying the Ottoman occupation is a first.
More_Ad_5142@reddit
Ottoman occupation? Occupations don’t last 5 centuries. You were simply a part of the Empire, stop calling it an occupation. You eventually got your independence from Ottomans legally. Occupations are illegal, whereas every state in Europe at the time recognized Ottoman sovereignty over the territory of modern Greece.
atzitzi@reddit
Everybody calls it an occupation because that is what it was. Greeks never became ottomans and 300something years was a blink of an eye in front of the greek presence of 4.000. We got our independence with our blood against the conqueror.
More_Ad_5142@reddit
Plenty of Greeks were Ottoman citizens. Stop deluding yourself. It was not an occupation, maybe initially yes, but after that all the territories were legally incorporated into the Porte. Your country is a result of as much ethnic cleansing as any other Balkan country, including Turkey.
atzitzi@reddit
My country is a result of Greek revolution. If greeks didn't fight hard against their conquerors we would be second class citizens today likes kurds, still called terrorists. It is your country a patchwork graveyard of other nations homelands homelands

Constantinople was our capital Ayia Sophia is the most orthodox cathedral. Smyrna was our cosmopolitan city that orthodox thrived when Turks were busy conquering more lands.

More_Ad_5142@reddit
Constantinople was OUR capital from 1453 onwards. Hagia Sofia is monumental, but so is the Blue Mosque! İzmir was an Ottoman port city, before ottomans conquered it, it was an insignificant port. Guess what? Thessaloniki was OUR city, too, Greeks barely made a quarter of the population before the advancing Greek army ethnically cleansed the Turks and Slavs. You see where this is going? You are a hardcore nationalist with no sense of nuance.

I just asked a question and you immediately attacked me. Do you have a chip on your shoulder?
We don't have anything called kebabi. Some places sell kebab. We don't claim it's Greek. We claim souvlaki is Greek though.
We don't have caciki. We have tzatziki but it's made differently to cacik. Never met a single Greek that claimed we invented it... just that we made the Greek version.
We don't have anything called baklavaki. We have baklava and baklavadaki which is a smaller version. I do not think it was originally Turkic. Simpler versions of this desert go back to ancient Greece and even the Assyrians and these type of deserts were very popular in the middle east. It's current form was probably made in Ottoman times by god knows who. Ottoman Empire was comprised of many different nationalities.
Just because a name of something is in a certain language, that doesn't mean that county created it. Unless you also think the television is a GrecoRoman invention.

Waiting for a ferry in Piraeus some years ago, we went looking for some food in the back streets, and ended up in a little tavern. There was a chap in the corner, on his own, with an extremely gravelly voice and a bouzouki singing something along the lines of the above, and a table with 4-5 guys. One by one, they got up, and took turns doing this dance, at times, it looked a lot like they were mimicking digging their own grave.
I'm from the Balkans, but had never seen anything quite like this before - men expressing their deepest emotions through the medium of dance. It seems like a structured social ritual - the Serbian equivalent might be ordering a sad song or one to otherwise reflect one's mood, man hugging, smashing a glass maybe - but this seems less structured.
oupat@reddit
Zeibekiko is not the defeated man's dance. It doesn't have to do with despair. It's more the brave man's dance, or the dance when someone is feeling brave. But there is a meeting point with what you are describing. Man or the human are alone in front of existence and utterly death. So defeat is what it comes down to, but by dancing a zeibekiko you accept the defeat in a brave way.
Apart from many other greek dances (and balkan or asiatic) that are social and danced by many people together, zeibekiko is danced by only one person at each time. But there are more than one ways to dance to it, not only the bended down slow way, but also the outwards-the-chest way picking up tables with the teeth, the strong way that reeks manhood and beastness.

I am triggered because those types of questions are meant ironically, usually by Turkish people in instances like these.

It is either Zeibekis or Zeibekos(Greek, meaning: Zeus' son), Saybek(Turkish, meaning: strong defender), Zaybak(Arabic, meaning: mercury).
There are other theories but these are the most common.
