The Arabs do not of course trouble themselves with speculations as to 
the origin of this people, hut have a traditionary belief that they immigra¬ 
ted to Arabia from Persia at some remote period. I may remark, in 
conclusion, that resemblance between the Zatt and the Gipsies of Europe 
in character, appearance, habits, and profession (I have no means of com¬ 
paring the languages) is so striking and complete, that the hypothesis 
of their identity of origin must be regarded as, at least, highly probable.
