This was developed by the indians back when rain dances and smoke signals were the way of contacting gods. But being overrun by the white man and wanting to prevent becoming enslaved, this dance came into true form. but it didnt work.

The common most interpretation for the world is that:
BHA-bhava; RA-raga; TA-tala, making is an unison of sentiment that is visual, raga that is audible and tala which keeps to rhythm. This connotation is given by bVedanta desika (1268-1369)
There is a belief that the term has been coined in the 19th century, but it has been used by poet-saint Purandaradasa in the 16th century. The name Aadi Bharata is also found in the commentary to the epic-tale Silappadikaram (which belongs to the 2nd century). This AdiBharata could belong to a period even before the Bharata known by the Natyasastra. 'Bharata', apart being a name of a person, it has been also used to denote, the dancing clan called 'Paratar'. If that is taken, then it is the paratar-natiyam, which turned to Bharatanatyam.
