Hey Woofus... that's like asking whether food or our ability to eat it came one before the other. IMO, they both came simulaneously since "rhythm" is inherent in both expressions.

Jump off the fence, droogie. Your body is a drum. I think maybe the dance came first and then some shaman chick sitting on a log took it from there . . .
