Sakalava people

The Sakalava are an ethnic group of Madagascar numbering over 1,210,000 in 2014.〔Ethnologue, 2014. Based on extrapolations of latest census figures to report on Malagasy people groups (2014 L. Bouwer)〕 Their name means "people of the long valleys." They occupy the western edge of the island from Toliara in the south to Sambirano in the north.
==Ethnic identity==
The Sakalava denominate a number of smaller ethnic groups that once comprised an ancient empire, rather than an ethnic group in its own right. The origin of the word ''Sakalava'' itself is still subject to controversy, as well as its actual meaning. The most common explanation is the modern Malagasy translation of Sakalava meaning long ravines, denoting the relatively flat nature of the land in western Madagascar. Another theory is that the word is possibly from the Arabic ''saqaliba'', which is in turn derived from Late Latin ''sclavus'', meaning slave.
