Plataniotiko Nero is a syrtos style dance from the Island of Samos named after a village on the island called Platano and from the famous song on the island called "Το πλατανιώτικο νερό".[1] The song also comes from the village of Platanos on the island.[2] None of the other villages on the island have a distinct dance.
