In their rich national history of over 1000 years, the Roma were known as people entertainers.
Beside the other, the circus profession, like jugglers, acrobats, tamers, etc., was part of their everyday life.
In one of the studies, it is noted that the first Roma circus group on the territory of Europe appeared in 1322. She traveled from Egypt to Constantinople, and numbered 20 members who made deadly games in the arena. That shrub in 1323 from Constantinople through Thrace arrived in Macedonia and then in Serbia.
At that time in Serbia, the master was Stefan Uros II or better known as Dečanski. Greek historian Nikifor Grigoras described this circus in his work "History of Byzantium".
According to him, these circus performances in Serbia did the same things they did in Constantinople as well. They watched the plays in Prizren, Skopje and other cities. Probably that group of Roma circus acrobats then went somewhere to the west most probably in Spain. These records were evidence that Roma were already in this area at that time.
Then from the time of the Turks who occupied this area there are reliable sources for the Roma that were in this area. One of them is from 1491, according to the census Roma were Christians who found the Turks themselves.
