The origin of samba depends on the country, and the country in which samba originated from

Samba originated in Africa. The word "samba" is said to have evolved from "samba" in the Kimbundu language, the second largest tribe in Angola, Africa. "Samba" was originally a passionate belly dance.

As the name suggests, this dance is characterized by shaking the abdomen up and down and shaking the buttocks. It was one of the most popular dance moves in Angola and later spread with the rise of the slave trade. For more than 300 years, from the thirties of the 16th century to the middle of the 19th century, Portuguese colonizers sold 12 million black slaves to Brazil from Angola and other parts of Africa.

When the black slaves were stuffed into the hold of the ship and transported to the newly discovered continent of Latin America, the white slave traders feared that the distance would be long, and the black slaves would stay in the hold for dozens of days, and when they arrived ashore, their legs and feet would not be able to sell them at a good price. Therefore, every day, they drove the black slaves crowded in the cabin to the deck, and let them dance a samba dance to the accompaniment of beating barrels and iron pots.

In this way, the colonizers, who wanted to increase the bidding power of the special commodity of black slaves, inadvertently brought this popular dance in Africa to Latin America. According to some research, samba was first popular in El Salvador, the capital of the state of Bahia, Brazil. It turned out that this was the place where the Portuguese first landed and colonized Brazil.

They have a large number of plantations and mining farms here. Black slaves who were trafficked into plantations and mining farms enjoyed their hard work by dancing this hometown dance. In the following centuries, black slaves from Africa and their descendants came into contact with whites from all over Europe and gradually merged with indigenous Indians.

In this way, their dances gradually absorbed some elements of the Bohemian polka from Europe, the Habanera from Cuba and the local Maxi Quercher from Brazil, and gradually formed the modern samba.

It is recorded that at the beginning of the 20th century, it was the women of the state of Bahia who brought this dance to Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil at the time. From then on, the dance began to flow from the coast to the interior, from the slums to the upper classes, from the black, mulata people of mixed descent to the white people. At the same time, the instruments that had always been accompanied by Spanish six-string guitars and ukuleles were gradually replaced by percussion instruments such as brass drums, gongs, and cymbals in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro.

In 1928, Brazil's first samba school, "Let Gossip", was established in Rio de Janeiro. In 1932, Brazil held the first Valentine's Day samba parade to observe the competition, which was welcomed and praised by the people. From then on, modern samba soon became popular throughout Brazil.
