“Karavon,” which gave its name to the festival in the Russkoe Nikolskoe village in Tatarstan, is an old form of the Russian roundelay in which dancers hold each other by their little fingers and change the size of the circle. The holiday has been celebrated annually in Russian villages in Tatarstan since the 16th century.
