Zamacueca

The Zamacueca is an ancient colonial dance and music that originated in the Viceroyalty of Peru, taking its roots from Spanish, and Andean rhythms. It is known as a celebratory dance of independence as South America was liberating itself from Spanish rule. It is one of the earliest popular dances of coastal Peru and a direct predecessor of the marinera.
