It should be mentioned that there is a dance from Slavonia, done by Croatians, called Rukavice, and it is not the dance haj, Haj Bože daj (Radikalko). That latter dance is, of course the devojačko/Šetnja folk dancers know. The Slavonian dance, which I learned from Dick Crum, and is in Ron Houstons Folk Dance Problem Solver 2014, is a circle dance done in front basket hold and does start to the left.
There are many dances that share a common tune, and this is one of them.
