Bukhara Roma-Luli
Once upon a time poor parents, they had a son and daughter, Liu Li. Once the country has come a conqueror whose parents fled in the confusion of lost children. Orphaned Liu and Lee went to look for them - each chose his own way. A few years later they met and do not know each other get married. When the truth was opened, Mullah cursed them, and since then the curse pursues their descendants who are called "Luli". This is one of the legends that can be heard from the current number of elderly unusual group of "Luli" living in Central Asia. It attempts to explain not only the origin of the word "Luli" not having any translation from one language, but also to emphasize the isolation of the group despised the surrounding population.
The story with a sad ending, of course, fantastic. Russian travelers and scientists who conducted the research in Central Asia and have found striking similarities with the European Roma Luli, offered a scientific hypothesis.

3. The scientists hypothesized that the name "Lurie" or "Luli", linked with the city Arur, or Al-rur, - the ancient capital of Sindh Raja, one of the areas of north-western India.
4. The group of artists settled down in a new place, and preserving its seclusion and professional specialization, caste has become a kind of gypsy ethnic group.
