Bermuda's culture is a mixture of the various sources of its population, though little trace remains of the various Native-American, Spanish-Caribbean, or African, and Irish Gaelic or Scots cultures that would have been evident in the seventeenth Century, with the culture largely homogonized to an Anglo-Saxon one. Today, the only language other than English which is spoken by any substantial part of the population is actually Portuguese, following 160 years of immigration from Portuguese Atlantic islands (primarily the Azores, though also from Madeira and the Cape Verde Islands).
