Through a study of the documentation for the regions of Transylvania and Oltenia, I show that there is great diversity in local interpretation of the categorizations “gypsy” or “nomad.” Secondly, I show that the logistics were under-planned: the local police stations, often very small and lacking in capacity, had to manage transfers of large groups of deportees. Finally, the geographical approach emphasizes how the transfer itself was a form of extensive persecution, since, poorly prepared, the journey starved both men and beasts.
