not much but i saw their genetic results. and i saw many kurds because 20 million lives in turkey. xd

there are many gypsies in turkey including eastern turkey who larp as kurds

and often many turks wrongly assume that the gypsies they see walking on the streets or in malls etc. are actually kurdish while they will mistake many kurds as just turkish etc

btw. might as well share this

most of my information i gathered on sites and videos that are in turkish language


here is a site that is in english language but the page doesnt exist anymore : http://www.domresearchcenter.com/news/turkey/marsh.html

but i saved some of it . it said :


"The Domari communities of eastern Turkey, like those elsewhere in the region, are one of the least known of all the Gypsy communities in the world. Largely absent from research carried out amongst Gypsy groups in the field of Romani Studies, the Dom of eastern Turkey have remained "hidden" from the view of the scholars and academics in the West since the letters of American missionaries in the late nineteenth century described in brief details their presence in these lands"


" In brief, the Dom of eastern Turkey are the most invisible of all the Gypsy groups."



According to ERRC's Turkey profile (2011-2012) , "the majority of Roma live in Western Anatolia, Thrace, in the Marmara region and the Aegean Sea region while the Dom and Lom groups mostly live in South Eastern and Eastern Turkey". Almost all the Roma in Turkey are Muslims.

sure but still i don't consider them caucasus people lol maybe i'm wrong
Kurda aren't caucasian though so why would you consider them as that in the first place. They tend to have overlaps with caucasus populations though

we are not caucasus people of course . nobody said that . i wonder if you think that i said that because i never did
nope you didn't said but that's why i said "more or less same situation with assyrians" i know kurds are more caucasus leaning

lol they look allien many parts of west asia xd but tbh i've never seen kurd who look like this examples. i guess they are just minority.

there are no kurds looking like this . these are gypsies not kurds

but trust me there are many gypsies who people will wrongly think are "kurds"

and us normal kurds often get taken as turks ....

for example imagine if i walked in a mall in istanbul . people would think i am turkish . here in germany most turks think i am turkish too

while when the turks see a gypsy they will look at him and think "dark = kurdish" wrongly . the perception is highly skewed

for example go to this video and go to 2:10:00 towards the end . the guy who comes for the woman (who seems kurdish because she looks kurdish) is gypsy . if turks see guys like him they will wrongly think he is kurdish because of their wrong image of how kurds are supposed to look like
