History[]
The tribe settled in Morocco, north-Africa in the 12th century. Around the 16th century, they moved to the Missour and Almis area. In the 17th century, they advanced towards the northwest of the Sefrou region, in order to reach the forest and the plain of the Gharb. In the 18th century they were pushed more westwards by the Zemmour tribe, which moved up from the south. Today they are located in the region stretching from Salé to Sidi Slimane.
