Etruscan Gypsies

As a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians.

Etruscan Gypsies

Post by MrsKPalm »

My family apparently descended from Etruscan gypsies. Does anyone know how to find more information on this group of people? :)

you will find no info as there is no "etruscan group of gypsies".
possible you mean gypsies from area of former Etruscan people?
pink area on 1st map. Etruscan have not any connection to gypsies!

You ask if anyone has more information about Etruscan Gypsies. You then proceed to furnish the reader with sources of information about The subject of Etruscan Gypsies which nobody wants to know anything about the subject except you.

If you wish to know something specific please ask this forum so that we may answer. If you do not have a specific inquiry then may I suggest you research the subject by going to GOOGLE.COM. =Peter=

Peter,

I think you misunderstood the last poster. She was not the original poster, just responding to the post. The original poster has not responded at all.
