Flamenco, Romani gypsies and Punjabi Jats


  • Flamenco is a form of Spanish folk music and dance that grew out of Andalusian(southern Spain) and Romani music/dance styles
  • The Romanis are gypsies found to be medieval migrants genetically linked to the Jats(Indo-Pak) and their language is similar to Punjabi & Marwari

Aside:
A Romani flamenco song I found
somewhat similar to the Rajasthani Manganiyars
