description The purpose of this research is to carry out a bibliometric analysis on traditional dances in Spain with the aim of parcelling all the data obtained in an academic way. A total of N=224 articles published between 2012 and 2022 and indexed in Web of Science were analysed. We used an ex post facto retrospective design and an analysis of frequencies carried out in the Mircrosoft Excel programme. The documents studied allowed us to classify all the publications by genres and areas (dance, history, sociology, education, ethnomusicology, anthropology, musicology, etc.), as well as the most prolific authors and the highest number of citations, among other aspects. As main results, it was observed that first-order documents in article format and written in Spanish predominated, with flamenco being the most mentioned genre and dance the most representative area. The most prolific year was 2020 and the most cited was 2017. The magazines Música Oral del Sur and La Madrugá, and the publishing house of the University of Murcia stood out in terms of number of publications. On the other hand, in terms of the number of citations, Leisure Studies and the Taylor & Francis publishing house predominated. The most significant author was Vargas-Macias, A. and the most cited author was Matteucci, X. This study could be taken as a starting point for future research on traditional dances in Spain. Keywords: traditional dances, baile, bibliometric, folklore, Spain.
