The word "Aretias" comes from the ancient name of a small island in The Black Sea. One can still see this mystical place, which is now called Giresun Island, off the coast of The Black Sea in Giresun, Turkey.
Aretias is a site sacred to the "Ancient Amazons". This mist surrounded "bird" island is mysterious and beautiful in appearance. It holds the very large "Black Hamza Stone", which is a large sphere of ingeous rock that is said to have magickal properties. To this day it is worshipped by Turkish women as a granter of fertility. The black stone was once surrounded by a large roofless temple built many centuries ago by the Ancient Amazons. This was their place for Goddess worship, magickal ceremonies, and DANCE.
This tribe is dedicated to Aretias - The performance production honoring the spirit of the Ancient Amazons ( Warrior Women) through the sacred Art of Dance. If one would like to be updated on recent performance dates, or would just like to learn about warrior women, belly dance, or fantasy related topics please join!!!
