Actually, Zorro, early in the 3rd century AD, the two mixed heavily during the Great Chinese-Gitano Wars. During the Second Chinese-Gitano War in particular, at night after the battles were done, the two camps would send their greatest performers--the gitanos their flamenco dancers, and the Chinese their kung-fu fighters--to the enemies' camp, to strike fear in the other sides' hearts. Inevitably, there was some mixing in styles and techniques.
