Angolan Argentines (Spanish: Angoleño-argentinos) are Argentines of predominantly or total Angolan descent or an Angolan-born people who reside in Argentina. Most of them arrived as slaves during the Spanish colonial period (16th–19th centuries). Currently, the Black Argentines make up 0.66% of the population and most are descended from slaves brought from Portuguese West Africa.
