By the dawn of its fifth, it was established on five continents as an icon of globalization, modernization, and social mobility, an A-list trophy, and a potential capital gain.

Algunas, puramente nominalistas y radicalmente erróneas, como la de que viene de Flandes; otras, simplemente reduccionistas, como la de que es un arte gitano. Blas Infante lanzó una nueva y clarividente teoría al asociar su origen con el íntimo dolor de los derrotados y humillados andalusíes y moriscos, fellah mengu, de la que vendría la expresión de flamenco.
