The tiganci are anthropomorphized, allegorical representations of death. The tiganci are often invoked to frighten children into behaving or to caution them against doing things that lead to their early demise. As a result, the tiganzi have become integral parts of Romanian fairy tales and being mentioned in folk songs. They have also been seen as an embodiment of Romanian folklore and folk traditions by some scholars who have traveled throughout Romania documenting it. Tiganci dolls are also common throughout Romania, especially during the Christmas season. The tiganci are generally personified as old men, the warlocks of the fairy tales, who are often depicted as being dressed in black. It is said that they reside at the end of a dark road. If a person were to travel down this road, they would encounter the tiganci. As an added danger to travelers, there are sometimes obstacles on either side of this dark, forbidden road - large boulders or brambles. The tiganci are most often depicted without ears or noses with horns on their heads. Other depictions have them with one eye or no eyes at all. The word "tiganci" is derived from "Tigan", which means gypsy or foreigner in Romanian. The tiganci are also associated with demons. The tiganci are said to have special powers that enable them to readily find lost objects or missing people. The tiganci are able to summon the spirits of the dead, but are not able to recall them once they have been summoned. There are many tales told about these spirit creatures, some of which have garnered praise from scholars of Eastern European folklore for their precision and insight into Romanian folk culture. A famous short story told throughout Romania is "The Little Old Man Without a Nose". The plot of this fairy tale revolves around a poor old man who has arrived at an inn, ready to rest for the night. He orders his meal, but does not require anything for himself. The innkeeper assures him that he won't need anything to eat until morning, so the old man agrees to order dinner for himself. The next morning, the innkeeper tells him how sorry he was for letting the old man go hungry, and states that his meal would be served shortly. The old man asks for some hot water to wash up in the meantime. The innkeeper says that there is no hot water in any of their baths. The old man asks if there is any hot water in the kitchen. The innkeeper tells him that there is water there, but not hot enough for bathing. The old man says that he will just have to wait and eat his breakfast then. The innkeeper then brings out his meal for the old man: a bowl of black beans and a bowl of unappetizing-looking gruel. Even though the old man hadn't ordered anything, he accepts it with thanks and begins to eat his meal with enthusiasm. cfa1e77820
