North African Arabs is a term to denote an inhabitant of the North African Maghreb who is of Arab origin and whose native language is a dialect of Arabic and who also has an Arab ethnic identity. The North African Arab tribe groups came as a result of the Arab conquest of North Africa and the spreading of Islam to Africa. Examples of these Arab tribes that migrated into North Africa in the 11th century and were a major factor in the linguistic, cultural and ethnic Arabization of the Maghreb are Banu Hilal 〔Weiss, Bernard G. and Green, Arnold H.(1987) ''A Survey of Arab History'' American University in Cairo Press, Cairo, p. 129, ISBN 977-424-180-0〕 an Arab tribe that had lived in Yemen and migrated via Upper Egypt,〔Ballais, Jean-Louis (2000) "Chapter 7: Conquests and land degradation in the eastern Maghreb" (p. 133 )〕 Banu Sulaym (an Arab tribe that had lived in Hejaz and Nejd) and also Beni Hassan (an Arab tribe that had lived in Yemen). The offsprings of these intermarriages created the North African Arab tribal groups who speak Arabic as a first language and have an Arab ethnic identity and moreover are representing nowadays the majority of the population in the countries in North Africa, which include Morocco, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, and Egypt. The North African Arab group has to be distinguished from the Arabized Berber groups, who have very little Arab ethnic background, or from the pure Arab Bedouin tribes in the Maghreb region. ==See also== *Arabs *Banu Hilal *Banu Sulaym *Beni Hassan *North Africa *Maghreb *Idrissid *Alaoui *Saadi 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「North African Arabs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
