Congo square is in the vicinity of a spot which homeless Indians used before the arrival of the French for celebrating their annual corn harvest and was considered sacred ground. The gathering of enslaved African vendors in Congo square originated as early as the late 1740s during Louisiana's French colonial period and continue during the Spanish colonial era as one of the city's public markets. By 1803 Congo square had become famous for the gatherings of enslaved Africans who drummed dance, sang and traded on Sunday afternoons. By 1819, these gatherings numbered as many as 500 to 600 people among the most famous dances were the bambula the kalinda and the Congo. These African cultural expressions gradually developed into Mardi gras Indian traditions, the second line and eventually New Orleans, jazz and rhythm and blues.
