Word origin
The term 'gypsies' is derived from the mistaken belief that the Romani people originated in Egypt. In reality, their ancestors migrated from the Indian subcontinent. The Romani have a rich cultural heritage, but have often been marginalized and discriminated against. Their nomadic lifestyle has led to misunderstandings and stereotypes about their community.
