- The Domba or Dom (Sanskrit ḍoma, dialectally also Domaki, Dombo, Domra, Domaka, Dombar and variants) are an ethnic or social group, or groups, scattered across India. They are usually segregated from the mainstream community as outcastes. The Domba are sometimes also called "Chandala". Both terms also came to be used in the sense of "outcaste" in general. The form ḍomba Prakrit, while ḍoma and ḍumba are encountered in Kashmiri Sanskrit texts. Derived from ḍoma is ḍomākī, the name of a language spoken in a small enclave in the Northern Areas in Pakistan. Speakers of this language are probably the ancestors of the Dom people who were brought to Sassanid Persia as servants and musicians. The Dom language (Domari language) according to SIL Ethnologue has some 200,000 speakers in Northern India, disributed between the Domaki and Wogri-Boli dialects. The term ḍoma or ḍomba is extensively used in Indian Hindu and Buddhist literature for a segregated and enslaved population. Domba women or ḍombī played an important role in Tantric practices: because they were untouchables, sexual intercourse with them was considered debasing, for which reason they were selected as sexual partners by Tantrists seeking self-debasement.
