Narikuravas aka Indian Gypsies (c)ramaswamyn.com

The Indian Gypsies community (called the Narikurava’s) and its unique language “Vagriboli”. The erstwhile Jackal / Fox hunting community, moved as nomads across various regions and found base in Tamil Nadu & Kerala.
Now many have turned as Bead / Beaded chains sellers along with Jackal Teeths & Nails for good omen.(are they real Jackals or Fox’s, one needs to be sure & i’m not an authority in these :))
Its interesting to know that the head of the family carries a God’s Bundle (in their lingo “saami mootai”) with the blood stains of the animals sacrificed by them, which is inherited by the eldest son after the head’s demise.
