"blam you are usually on top of the news but this has been the accepted answer for some years now." Yup. I should have stated such in my first post. I read years ago that it is recorded somewhere(?) that a king in the Indus Valley awarded the king of Persia 10,000 of his subjects and there is some indication that this occured more than once. Somehow they made their way from Iran through Egypt and into Europe and were called Gypsies by the Europeans because they believed they came from Egypt.
