We can find the origin of Canarian wrestling in the history of the Aborigines, although it was practiced in a different way, leaving only some remnants of the way to fight the ancient inhabitants of the Canary Islands had in the form of struggle that is practiced nowadays.
All historians of the period of the conquest of these islands refer to the practice of a form of struggle of the indigenous population of the archipelago. But all these reviews make reference to a description of the type of struggle that was done to find out the origin or source of it.
From this we can deduce that the history of Canarian wrestling has been affected by this lack of data, and only thanks to the historians and chroniclers of the conquest, it was made clear that the Islanders practiced with skill and courage. There is no doubt that at that timethey practiced a fight and that thanks to it the origin of the fight is now known as Canarian wrestling.
In terms of existing theories about its origin, the most widespread today is defending that, as Aboriginal people in pre-conquest times had almost no contact between the different islands, and this type of control was extended by all, the struggle must have come first, and then came the arrival of different people to each of the islands.
Thus, the thesis defended is that Canarian wrestling has a Berber origin, North African, and when these individuals migrated to the islands brought their form of struggle as a cultural element. One argument in favor of this thesis is the existence of types of similar struggles in the north of Africa and which are able to "intermarry" with the way it was practiced.
The evolution of the Canarian wrestling throughout its history has been divided by the specialists into three distinct eras: historical era, when folk, little institutional.
