There is a specific old dance bearing the name "Sicilian Circle". You
can find it in, for instance, this 1857 instruction book from the
Library of Congress. https://www.loc.gov/item/musdi.094/ The name has
come to imply the formation and general pattern.

Newbie question: Why is it called a "Sicilian" circle?
While certain dances came from long ago with that label, wouldn't
many/most contras work, as long as the circle isn't too small and the
1s and 2s are comparably active?
