The subject of this article is the gypsy women and their attitude towards the captivity suffered with the general raid of 1749. Few are the studies dedicated to this historic episode, and even more, those which have the gypsy women as the protagonists. A characteristic which contrast with the plenty of primary sources to rebuild one of the darkest episodes of Spanish history: the extermination project of 1749. This article has two parts. The first one describes the origin and development of the raid and later Gypsy people extermination project. The second one focuses on the different destinies reserved for women, immersed in a tragic desolation periplus, misery, hunger, illness and death; but also in hope manifested by their rebellion. The gypsy women from the middle of the XVIII century are shown indomitable and decided in their fight to recover what was taken away: their family and freedom.Downloads
