Armadillos originated in South America and have gradually expanded their range northward. Before the 19th century they were not found in the United States. Since crossing the Rio Grande they have expanded their range to cover much of the southeast and their range continues to grow.

Armadillos originated in South America. The nine-banded armadillo has been expanding its range. It was not found in the United States until the 19th century when it crossed the Rio Grande in Texas and has been expanding its range ever since. It is now found across much of the southeast United States.

Like all other xenarthran lineages, armadillos originated in South America. Due to the continent's former isolation, they were confined there for most of the Cenozoic.
