Doms in Tunisia speak the Domari language. They immigrated to the territory of present-day Tunisia from South Asia, particularly from India, in Byzantine times. Doms self-segregated themselves for centuries from the dominant culture of Tunisia, who view the Doms as dishonorable though clever. Historically, Doms in Tunisia have provided musical entertainment at weddings and other celebrations. The Doms in Tunisia include subgroups such as Nawar, Halebi and Ghagar.
