Hasapiko (Template:Lang-el, Template:Lang-tr also transliterated hassapiko, hasapika and hasapico)is a common dance and musical form for dance, well known in domains of the Ottoman Empire within Balkans and Asia Minor. It is also called χασάπικος χορός or simply χασάπικος (hasapikos horos, chasápikos, khasápikos, hasápikos). The name comes from the word "butcher"(kasap in Turkish and χασάπης in Greek)The word kasap etymologically comes from arabic roots k s b, the verb to cut. In a form of fa'il gains a meaning of the one who cuts a lot. So possible interpretations can be made through cutting the notes, since it depends on very vivid rhythms. In Constantinople during the Byzantine times, was called μακελλάρικος χορός (makellarikos horos), which is still the proper term in katharevousa (purist Greek). Some Greeks, however, reserve the latter term only for the fast version of the dance.

The slow version of the dance is called χασάπικο βαρύ (hasapiko vary) or χασάπικος βαρύς (hasapikos varys) and generally employs a 4/4 tempo.

The fast version of the dance uses a 2/4 rhythm. It is variously called γρήγορο χασάπικο, γρήγορος χασάπικος, μακελλάριος χορός; χασαποσέρβικο (grigoro hasapiko, grigoros hasapikos, makellarios horos, hasaposerviko - the latter a reference to Serbian and other Balkan Slavic influences on this version of the dance).

Hasapiko served as a base for the Sirtaki.
