TAUROMAQUIA is the Greek
word for Bullfighting which came to the Spanish
language through Latin, the language of Rome
and the Roman Empire. Bullfighting is an integral
part of the Spanish culture and, having survived
centuries of controversy
it thrives in Spain, Portugal, México, Colombia,
Perú, Ecuador, Bolivia, Panamá, Guatemala,
Venezuela, Japan! and, yes,
even the
United States where this unique art is practiced in
California and other Western states.
