Another profession, wood-carving, was brought by the Rroma from India. Even now, in the Balkan, in Romania and Hungary, some Rroma groups are still carving spoons, troughs and other utensils needed by the local population. These Rroma are called Lingurara (In Romanian lingurar - someone making spoons) in Romania and in the Balkan. In other countries - Hungary and Croatia - they are called Bejaš.
