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.

In its current form, bullfighting originated in Spain. However, various forms of bull fighting or bull taunting can be found in many cultures, including in ancient Mesopotamia.
