    History, or the lack there of, tends to repeat itself

    http://www.fightauthority.com/martia...=1&styleID=38#

    "Jiu-Jitsu, the oldest form of martial arts, originated in India more than 2,000 years before Christ. It spread through China and eventually settled in Japan. In 1914, Japanese jiu-jitsu champions Maeda and Inomata arrived in Brazil to help establish a Japanese immigration colony in that developing country. He was aided by Gastao Gracie, a Brazilian scholar and politician of Scottish decent.
    To show his gratitude, the oriental master taught the basic secrets of that ancient fighting style to Gastao's son, Carlos Gracie."
