Documentation Between 1603-1651:

In Ben Jonson's Time Vindicated (1623), the entire court danced Huff Hannikin at the end of the play.

According to the Herbert Manuscript, Sir John Astley, who was the Master of the Revels under James I, took note of several dances that were done in 1622.  These include, "The meausres, braules, corrantos, and galliargs being ended, the Masquers with the ladyes did daunce 2 contrey daunces, namley The Soldiers Marche, and Huff Humukin, where the French Embassadors wife and Mademoysala St. Luke did."⁽¹⁾

It is worth noting that Sir Herbert was Astley's deputy.
