Summary/Abstract: The article points out the insufficient research of the Roma people’s history in Košice. It suggests mechanic and incorrect acceptation of Roma people’s Camp locality which have neither been questioned nor verified yet. The article tries to indicate the problems of the topic de facto from the Middle Ages and problems with the distinction of the places where Roma people were settling in particular periods of their development in the suburbs. There is an urgency of consistent research of the archival material and other sources of information which are associated with this important topic.
