The place called Little Egypt in Modon, Greece, is where the earliest documented account of Gypsies exists. The word Gypsies is taken from the word "Egyptians."The common Greek man sitting in the streets may well have been attracted to these colorfully dressed dark-skinned natives, who wore kohl around their eyes like ancient Egyptians. This music supports an outdoor market in Greece where native Greeks are having their fortunes told by visiting gypsies.
