Nemencha


The Nemencha are a large tribal confederation of Arab-Berber and Arabized Berbers in North Africa. They are composed of 4 clans in a territory in Algeria that bears their name, the Plateau Nemencha. They are neighbors of the Arab-Berber tribes Fraichiches, Kasserine, and Hilalians Hammema Gafsa

According to their traditions, they are from the Jebel Cherchar, from where they were expelled in the Middle Ages by the Beni Barbar who still occupy the Wadi Bedjer of Zawiya to Ciar. They are as divided into four groups that speak the same dialect of Arabic. Their main village is Taberdga.

After the Nemencha were completely expelled from Cherchar they become nomadic and formed three fractions: the Oulad, the Brarcha and Alaouna.
