It was the daughter of Herodias(Matthew 14:6-11), most likely Salome.
Herod Philip was the first husband of Herodias, before she divorced him to marry his half brother, Herod Antipas (Matthew 14:3, Mark 6:17, 18, Luke 3:19); something John the baptist condemned. To get back at John for denouncing the relationship, Herodias arranged a way to have him killed, using her daughter's seductive dance. The name of the daughter is not in The Bible account, but the writings of Josephus make clear that Philip and Herodias had a daughter, named Salome(Herodias' only daughter), so she is generally believed to be the dancer in question.(Matthew 14:1-13; Mark 6:17-29).

The Church of the Nazarene does not condone dancing because of attention it draws to the body. Nazarenes refrain from dancing in an effort to promote purity in both body and mind.

The time in history was ripe for the announcing of a new way of life--repent and be saved..That was the message of John the Baptist..who told of one greater than himself.. (Jesus, the Messiah) one whose sandal he was not worthy to untie.. John's style of vocalizing his message was powerful, and he was not afraid to upset the establishment and undermine consciouses such as Herod who was the Jewish ruler at the time. So impressed was Herod by John the Baptist, that he listened to him and was disturbed that he was not in keeping with what was right. However, his ego and his public image with the people were more important to Herod in the end. The mistake of vowing anything to Salome, who did her dance of seduction, sealed the fate of John the Baptist as Salome's request was the head of the Baptist on a platter.
