Final answer:

The 'Dance of The Tiger' is not a well-documented specific dance with a clear history, and without more context, it is not possible to establish whether it is one of the oldest or newest dances.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question about Dance of The Tiger seems to be a mix-up, as there is no well-documented, specific dance by that name which is known as one of the oldest or newest dances. When discussing the history of dance, we could consider ancient dances like those from the Roman times, described by Lucian, or the traditional African dances, like the Gumboot dance that emerged from the mining culture in South Africa and has evolved over time. It's also worth noting that even in the case of something like Igor Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring, which was once new and controversial, has since become part of the classical ballet canon. However, in the absence of clear information, it is difficult to determine whether 'Dance of The Tiger' refers to an ancient or a modern dance without further context.
