	Brazilian Dances: Lundu
		The lundu or lundum was brought to Brazil by Bantu slaves from Angola and surrounding areas.
		Still danced in the island of Marajó in the Amazon delta, the lundu(m) is a very sensual, voluptuous - rather lascivious really - couple's dance.
		It was later replaced by the maxixe (which was also considered scandalous...) and the samba.

		However, there is no canteen at the headquarters so, prepare yourself with some food before making your journey here or head on down to Lundu for some food.
