Did you know?

I think I knew this somewhere deep in the recesses of an old and ossifying brain, but it only re-dawned on me today.

Roma is the term we use now for what were called Gypsies when I was a kid.

(The term Gypsy probably originated with the Greek word for Egyptian, though the Roma/Romani/Gypsies most likely came from India into Europe 1000± years ago.)
