Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox ethnic group The Dom (دوم) or Ghagar (غجر) people migrated to the territory of the present day Egypt from South Asia, particularly from Indian Subcontinent, and heavily intermixed with Egyptians. Scholars suggest that their Egyptian admixture later made them known around the world by the vernacular term Gypsies, deriving from the word "Egyptian."[1][2] Though some of the Dom people self-segregated themselves for centuries from the dominant culture of Egypt,[3] historically; Domari in Egypt have intermixed with Egyptians and participated at local musical entertainment at weddings, circumcisions and other celebrations, singing Egyptian traditional songs and dance in return for money. The Dom people in Egypt or Roma Egyptians include subgroups like Nawar, and Ghagar (ghaggar).[4][5] The Dom in Egypt are Sunni Muslims and speak Egyptian Arabic also their own Domari language together.[6]
