Might European dance around it? (7)

I believe the answer is:

maypole

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dance around it?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'might european' is the wordplay.
'might' becomes 'may' (I've seen this before).
'european' becomes 'pole' (Pole is an example).
'may'+'pole'='MAYPOLE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for maypole that I've seen before include "Centre of ribbon dance" , "Post for dancers" , "at centre of dancing" , "Feature of seasonal dance" , "Decorated springtime post" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
