| Abstract: | This study aims to analyze the origins of the Rromani people and their language, taking into account both the legends that have circulated for centuries, and the scientific approach to the subject, considering mainly, but not exclusively, linguistic data. The conclusion of this research is that legends have to be deconstructed wisely and, on the other hand, plausible theories have to be tested using the historical method, namely not only checking “written documentation” (which can be untrue) but also putting together all historical, political, economical, military, religious, philosophical, psychological etc. aspects, in order to check the consistency of these factors. |
