[edit] Mexican origin?
I deleted this:
Rumba is a family of music rhythms and dance styles that originated in the Mexican civilizations from the time of the Toltecs. and were introduced to the Caribbean over the centuries. The tribal dances were all very limited, West Indians or Africans. But the Mexican civilizations had "Professional" dancers whose whole lives were spent in the dance and had perhaps 5000 different dances at their peak with the Mayans. Rumba may refer to:
Are there any verifiable sources that confirm the mexican origin of Rumba stated here? Rumba shows very clear traces of african origin and the surviving forms of mexican precolumbian dance and rhythms are so different that this theory seems totaly wrong.--Cha daniels (talk) 14:36, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
