Backward Kir crime families are associated with either of two "lineages", Nightworkers (''Fêraventár'') and Gravediggers (''Aigūtumnár''), with roots in the criminal underworld of the late 19th century AD. The term "nightworker" began as an oblique way to refer to any professional criminal, whether part of an organised faction or not. In addition to the obvious denotation of someone who works under the cover of darkness, the word is also suggestive of the nocturnal sanitation-related and other menial jobs traditionally assigned to the lowest castes, which many nightworkers continued to claim as their official occupation. | |||
