Yes im indeed of mixed ancestry. My father is 1/4 roma and 3/4 serbian. My mother is 1/8 russian and rest roma. Im however more than half roma 9/16. So i guess the indian phenotype prevails. I dont pass as european to the locals they ask me "where im from"

I guess you want to know from which part of India you came .Maybe a sample of pictures from different roma groups will put a light in this matter.

yes that too but im more interested to know which part of india me and my family would fit in.





removed pic...

Now ,its hard to tell from which region of India they came.Especially if they are mixed.A bengali or marathi mixed whit an european could look like a kashmirian or punjabi .

But most agree that most of romas came from a single region of India so we need the pictures of many romas from different backgrounds and regions and make a comparison whit native people from different region of India.

so here are link to diferent romas that i find;you can put more of them

Hey RomaIndian



For the last picture, if you had not mentioned that they are Euro Gypsies, I would have assumed them to be North Western Indians, !!





Thanks

Italian justice has ruled that begging is a "cultural tradition" of Roma
