King Of The Gypsies
The title King of the Gypsies has been claimed or given over the centuries to many different people. It is both culturally and geographically specific. It may be inherited, acquired by acclamation or action, or simply claimed. The extent of the power associated with the title varied; it might be limited to a small group in a specific place, or many people over large areas. In some cases the claim was clearly a public-relations exercise. As the term wikt:gypsy, Gypsy is also used in many different ways, the ''King of the Gypsies'' may be someone with no connection with the Romani people, Roma. It has also been suggested that in places where their crimes were prosecuted closely by local authorities the "King of the Gypsies" is an individual, usually of low standing, who places himself in the risky position of an ad hoc liaison between the Roma and the "gadje" (non-Roma). The arrest of such a "King" limited the criminal liability of the Roma. Bulgaria Mustafa Shibil Mustafa Shibil ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
