Brazilian culture has a rich musical tradition with diverse regional styles influenced by African, European and indigenous influences. Samba and bossa nova are two of Brazil's most famous musical exports, with samba being strongly associated with Rio's Carnival celebrations. Brazil also has a long visual arts history dating back 13,000 years to cave paintings, with later Pre-Columbian cultures producing intricate pottery and sculptures. Samba dancing is deeply ingrained in Brazilian culture and may have origins connected to West African religious ceremonies.
