The
Masmuda is a
Berber tribal confederacy of
Morocco and one of the largest in the
Maghreb, along with the
Zanata and the
Sanhaja. They were composed of several sub-tribes: The
Berghouatas,
Ghomaras (Ghomarids), Hintatas (
Hafsids),
Tin Malel, Hergha, Genfisa, Seksiwa, Gedmiwa, Hezerdja, Urika, Guerouanes, Bni M'tir, Hezmira, Regraga, Haha les Banou Maghus, Gilawa and others. Today it largely corresponds to the speakers of the
Tachelhit language, while other clans, such as
Regraga and
Doukkala, have adopted Arabic.
