The Wattassids (Berber: ⵉⵡⴻⵟⵟⴰⵙⴻⵏ, ''Iweṭṭasen'', Arabic: الوطاسيون, ''al-waṭṭāsīyūn'') were a ruling dynasty of Morocco. Like the Marinids, they were of Zenata Berber descent.〔C.E. Bosworth, ''The New Islamic Dynasties'', (Columbia University Press, 1996), 48.〕 The two families were related, and the Marinids recruited many viziers from the Wattasids.〔 These viziers assumed the powers of the Sultans, seizing power when the last Marinid, Abu Muhammad Abd al-Haqq, who had massacred many of the Wattasids in 1459, was murdered during a popular revolt in Fez in 1465. Abu Abd Allah al-Sheikh Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Mahdi was the first Wattasid Sultan, but controlled only the northern part of Morocco, the south being divided into several principalities. The Wattasids were finally supplanted in 1554, after the Battle of Tadla, by the Saadi princes of Tagmadert who had ruled all the South of Morocco since 1511. ==Overview== Morocco endured a prolonged multifaceted crisis in the 15th and early 16th centuries brought about by economic, political, social and cultural issues. Population growth remained stagnant and traditional commerce with black Africa was cut off as the Portuguese occupied all seaports. At the same time, the towns were impoverished, and intellectual life was on the decline. 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「Wattasid dynasty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
