Regarding Granada and los gypsies,we would like today to talk about an ancient population,los gitanos.They derived from an ancient culture that we usually call manouche,gypsy or romanì.They belong from a very ancient traditions and they travelled all around the world with couloured chariots of persons.The french word manouche derives from sanscryte and it wants to mean “libertà”.The gytans are very really well-known for tarots and for foreseeing the future.They have lived for so long in France, but we think that they have their origins in the ancient India.They escavate little houses in the carved whites stones near Marseille and they worked in artistic little shop in order to survive.During ’60ies the gytanes neighboorhood on the south-est of Paris,another area in which gypsies lives,were menaced by the the racism of people and they also decided to move to the Sacres-Pierres,with the other community of the gytanes that lived near Marseille.This lieu is known to the world as the Saint Sepolcre,correlated to the biblic history of Jesus and the Palestine.
Esmeralda,the gytanes protagonist of Notre Dame de Paris,derives from there.Effectively,Victor Hugo,it was referring to the sacre pierres when he wrote from the origins of the gytanes:there were sacred blanches pierres excavated interiorilly in which gytanes live.
This neigbooorhood was called “El Barranco de los negros”,and it s knwon from the bible history as the las cuevas de los reyes magos.Ese barrio-this neighboorhood-was created after the gytanes persecution and it’s made of huecos created in the whites stones.The most famous history about this lieu is about this three dark arabic men known as reyes magos and similar to tuareg who lives in the white caves which with the times became a sort of desert,but the gift that they symbolycally bring to Jesus(gold,incense and mirra)was correlated to the fact that they ll always donate to the population that they will encounter in the future three gift:their history,their view of things and their nose.
But coming back to Esmeralda and los gytanos,the point from which we departed,in this particular scarfed white stone,which in the interior there are a proper house,it s really famouse the Zambra,which is a typical gytanes wardle,which people sat around in cercle and two dancer at the center doing a typical nomadic dance.Other typical gytanes tradition is the Jesus with the dark colour of piel,this image is accurately conserved in the abbey and when the new year come,in September,this painting is birnged out and adored.
