Summary/Abstract: The article discusses issues related to the nomadism of Gypsies in historical contexts. The starting point is the assumption that there is a mythological way of thinking about their journeys (nomadism, semi-nomadism). It persisted both in the majority thinking and in the perception of the Gypsies themselves. The examples in the article are the attitudes of certain countries and the policy pursued towards them. The journeying of the Gypsies on the roads of Europe is also presented.
