Who are Irish gypsies?

Irish Gypsies are also known as:Irish TravellersIrish TinkersSee the links.irish Travellers are not gypsys they are a community of theyre own and are celtic in origin, they are an ancient nomadic people of ireland or europe, during hard times of struggle in ireland, non TRAVELLERS joined them selves to the nomadic group out of starvation because they knew the Travellers would find work where ever they Travelled. so what we have today is a mixture of real irish Travellers and irish peasents who think they are Travellers but who can only go back in history to about 100 years, and thats why so many irish Travellers give other gypsy/Travellers a bad name with theyre wild and wreckless ways, because they are not Travellers but ordinary irish peasents trying to act like real Travellers but they can't because they have a council estate mentality

Where do travellers come from?

The travellers are a nomadic subculture from Ireland whose actual origins are hotly debated among scholars. Some claim the travellers are descendants of landowners made homeless by Oliver Cromwell's military campaign in Ireland. One of the more far-fetched explanations for the travellers says they are descended from a tinsmith who helped craft the cross used to crucify Jesus. The tinsmith's descendants were said to be cursed to wander the earth until the messiah's second coming. According to genetic tests performed on travellers, their actual origin can probably be traced to a single individual of non-Irish descent. The Irish travellers are considered a distinct ethnic group by British law but not by the Irish government. In addition, they possess a distinctive culture and dialect from their Irish peers. However, their surnames are generally Irish in origin. Travellers are often associated with or even misidentified as gypsies, another nomadic ethnic subculture of Europe. They are, however, distinct groups with entirely different origins and cultures. Because of their clannish nature, both travellers and gypsies are often targets of prejudice and open discrimination. why have u just mentioned Irish travellers?
