I personally don't know the history of stepping, but I always thought it came from the Greeks too. I notice their dance step and claps from the movie National Lampoons European Vacation. (The scene where Chevy Chase run through the festival and he is up on the stage with the Greek Guys stepping to greek music in the Alpine outfits) They were stepping and slapping their legs and feet. I just thought "we" as African Americans added the "soul" and strolling to it.

I think that was German dancing.
