They rarely go to folk healers, and they participate fully in Spain's state-supported medical system. Gitanos have a special involvement with recently- dead kin and visit their graves frequently. They spend more money than non- gitanos of equivalent economic classes in adorning grave sites. The Spanish New-Protestant /New-Born Federation (mostly composed of members of

368-520: A major effort to get rid of the Calé population in Spain was carried out through a raid organized by the government. During the Spanish Civil War , gitanos were not persecuted for their ethnicity by either side.

414-486: A more favourable treatment by local Europeans, or were mistaken as Egyptians by local Europeans. The group's identity is particularly complex in Spain for a variety of reasons that are examined below. Nevertheless, it can be safely said that both from the perspective of gitano and non- gitano ( payo ) Spaniards, individuals generally considered to belong to this ethnicity are those of full or near-full gitano descent and who also self-identify as such. A confusing element

The father of such a movement, Blas Infante , in his book Orígenes de lo flamenco y secreto del cante jondo , etymologically , went as far as alleging that the word flamenco derives from Andalusian Arabic fellah mengu , supposedly meaning "escapee peasant". Infante believed that numerous Muslim Andalusians became Moriscos , who were obliged to convert, were dispersed, and were eventually ordered to leave Spain , but stayed and mixed with

Traditionally, they maintain their social circles strictly within their patrigroups , as interaction between patrigroups increases

782-576: Is probably around one million. The term gitano evolved from the word egiptano ("Egyptian"), which was the Old Spanish demonym for someone from Egipto (Egypt). "Egiptano" was the regular adjective in Old Spanish for someone from Egypt, however, in Middle and Modern Spanish the irregular adjective egipcio supplanted egiptano to mean Egyptian, probably to differentiate Egyptians from Gypsies. Meanwhile,

Although there is controversy over the date of the first arrival, since there is evidence of a safe conduct granted in Perpignan in 1415 by the infante Alfonso of Aragon to one Tomás, son of Bartolomé de Sanno, who is said to be "Indie Majoris". Or instead, it could be the so-called Juan de Egipto Menor, who entered through France, when in 1425 Alfonso V granted him

874-614: Is the most basic, most profound, the most aristocratic of my country, as representative of their way and whoever keeps the flame, blood, and the alphabet of the universal Andalusian truth. The art of Flamenco was developed in the Calé Romani culture of Southern Spain. Many famous Spanish flamenco musicians are of Romani ethnicity. The rumba flamenca and rumba catalana are styles mixing flamenco and Cuban guaracha , developed by Andalusian and Catalan gitanos . Due to endogamy , several Spanish surnames are more frequent among

920-513: Is the thorough hybridization of Andalusian and Roma culture (and some would say identity) at a popular level. This has occurred to the point where Spaniards from other regions of Spain commonly mistake elements of one for the other. The clearest example of this is flamenco music and Sevillanas , art forms that are Andalusian rather than gitano in origin but, having been strongly marked by gitanos in interpretative style, are now commonly associated with this ethnicity by many Spaniards. The fact that

Today, rumba gitana or rumba flamenca are usual party music fixtures. Gitanos may also marry by elopement , an event that garners less approval than

The Romani Evangelical Assembly is the only religious institution entirely led and composed by Roma. The gitano Evangelical church (Iglesia de Filadelfia) asserts the gitano people originate from a group of Jews who got lost during Moses' lifetime and eventually became the gitanos . The traditional Spanish Romani place

1058-590: The Punjab region shared between India and Pakistan. The linguistic evidence has indisputably shown that the roots of the Romani language lie in the Indian subcontinent : the language has grammatical characteristics of Indic languages and shares with them a big part of the basic lexicon, for example, body parts, daily routines and numerals. More exactly, Romani shares the basic lexicon with Hindi and Punjabi . It shares many phonetic features with Marwari , while its grammar

Gitanos have a low and little politically committed role, with some particular exceptions; Andalusian nationalism and identity is strongly based on a belief in the oriental basis of Andalusi heritage, which acted as a bridge between occidental-western and oriental-eastern Andalusian culture at

1288-527: The Romani newcomers instead of abandoning their land. These claims have been rejected by many historians and genetic research papers. For about 300 years, Romanies were subject to a number of laws and policies designed to eliminate them from Spain as an identifiable group. Romani settlements were broken up and the residents dispersed; sometimes, Romanies were required to marry non-Roma; they were prohibited from using their language and rituals, and were excluded from public office and from guild membership. In 1749,

The Romani people originate from northwestern Hindustan , presumably from the northwestern Indian state of Rajasthan and

1702-462: The post-Franco era, Spanish government policy has been much more sympathetic, especially in the area of social welfare and social services. In 1977, the last anti-Romani laws were repealed, an action promoted by Juan de Dios Ramírez Heredia , the first Romani deputy. Beginning in 1983, the government operated a special program of Compensatory Education to promote educational rights for the disadvantaged, including those in Romani communities. During

1794-676: The previous five years. A traditional discriminatory practice in Portugal, where shops and businesses display toad figurines at entrances to dissuade ciganos from entering, was reported as being still widely seen in Portugal in 2019. (Toads are viewed as symbolic of evil and ill-omen in Roma communities in Portugal.) Ciganos and anti-discrimination activists complained of hostility to Roma being commonplace. Some shopkeepers were noted as defending their discouragement of Roma as appropriate. The 2016 Pew Research poll found that 49% of Spaniards held unfavorable views of gitanos. The gitano in Spanish society have inspired several authors: The Roma

Weddings can last very long; up to three days

1886-412: The risk of feuding, which may result in fatalities. The emergence of Pentecostalism has impacted this practice, as the lifestyle of Pentecostal gitanos involves frequent contact with Calé people from outside their own patrigroups during church services and meetings.
