The Cascarots (Basque: Kaskarotuak) are an ethnic group found in the Northern Basque Country. They are one of many Roma subgroups in Western Europe but not to be confused with the Erromintxela.

History [edit]

Historic documents mention the Cascarots living in ghettos, for example in Ciboure and occasionally entire villages such as the village if Ispoure.[1]
