Angolan Argentine
An Angolan Argentine is an Argentinian of Angolan descent or an Angolan naturalised Argentinian. Most of them arrived as slaves during the Spanish colonial period (16th–19th centuries).

From the 16th century, most Africans brought to Argentina belonged to ethnic groups who speak Bantu languages, coming from the territories now comprising the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola and Mozambique. Many slaves of these countries were bought in Brasil, a country where most of the slaves were from these countries, especially from Angola. In 1680–1777 came at least 40,000 slaves in the region, while among the latter date and 1812, when traffic was halted, some 70,000 were landed in Buenos Aires and Montevideo (that figure must be added another, unknown, ...

Upon arrival of the Spaniards, the native inhabitants of Argentine territory were approximately 300,000 people belonging to many Indigenous American civilizations, cultures, and tribes. The history of immigration to Argentina can be divided into several major stages: * Spanish colonization between the 16th and 18th century, mostly male, largely assimilated with the natives through a process called miscegenation.
