It is believed that a form of bullfighting was introduced to Spain during the reign of Roman Emperor Claudius nearly 2000 years ago. Over the centuries the practice evolved into what we know today. When the Spanish conquered and colonized an area they introduced the spectacle, especially in parts of the Americas.

Some form of bullfighting has been around since prehistoric times. The current form of a man fighting the bull on foot was begun in 1726 by Francisco Romero in Spain. He was the 'father of bullfighting' and first matador to fight a bull on foot.
