![Siddis are descendants of Africans who were mostly trafficked to India as slaves by the Arabs, and later the Portuguese. Much of the Arab slave trade happened from Abyssinia, today’s Ethiopia and Eritrea, hence they were earlier called Habshi, derived from Arabic for Abyssinia (al-Habash). However, the Siddis of Karnataka are descendants from Bantu-speaking people of the Swahili coast.](/sites/default/files/styles/fr/public/030_4.jpg?itok=ZZEVzgIH)
