HISTORY:

The cumbia is a musical rhythm and traditional folkloric dance of Colombia, with contents of three cultural aspects, mainly African and indigenous black and, to a lesser extent, white (Spanish), being fruit of the long and intense mestizaje between these cultures during the Conquest And the Colony. The researcher Guillermo Abadía Morales in his Compendio del folclor colombiano, volume 3, # 7, published in 1962, states that "this explains the origin in the zamba conjugation of the musical air by the fusion of the melancholic indigenous pipe flute or cane Millo, that is to say, Tolo or Kuisí, of the Cuna and Koguis ethnic groups respectively, and the joyful and impetuous resonance of the African drum.The ethnographic city hall has been symbolized in the different roles that correspond in the dance of cumbia to each sex " .

 The presence of these cultural elements can be seen as follows:

-In the instrumentation are the drums of black African origin; The maracas, the guache and the whistles (millet and bagpipes) of indigenous origin; While the songs and coplas are contributions of Spanish poetry, although later adapted.

- Presence of sensual movements, markedly gallant, seductive, characteristic of dances of African origin.

-The dresses have clear Spanish features: long polleras, laces, sequins, candongas, and the same flower headdresses and intense makeup on women; Shirt and white trousers, red handkerchief knotted to the neck and hat in the men.

From the 1940s, commercial or modern cumbia expanded to the rest of Latin America, after which it became popular throughout the continent following different commercial adaptations, such as the Argentine cumbia, the Bolivian cumbia, the Chilean cumbia, the cumbia Ecuadorian cumbia, cumbia mexicana, cumbia peruana, cumbia salvadoreña, cumbia uruguay and cumbia venezolana, among others.

The word cumbia has been the subject of study by different authors who attribute different origins and meanings.

In 1936, the Panamanian musicologist Narciso Garay assumed that the word cumbia shares the same linguistic root of the word cumbé, a dance of African origin recorded in the Dictionary of the Royal Academy of Language as "Baile de Negros".

Colombian folklorist Delia Zapata Olivella, in her 1962 publication "La Cumbia: Musical Synthesis of the Colombian Nation, Historical and Choreographic Review," points out that the only cumbia-like voice that the Spanish Academy hosts is that of cumbé: A certain black dance and a tune of this dance. " And that cumbes (without tilde), are called the blacks that inhabit in Bata, in the continental Spanish Guinea (present Equatorial Guinea).

Cumbia comes from Cumbague and Cumbague was the personification of the native cacique pocabuyano, it is said that Cumbague besides having a character bellicos and daring, had to be an excellent drinker of maco (chicha) because all of its race were very drunk and friends of the dance And the party.
