lord. This tribe is subdivided into the following 
sections : — 
Kel-gogi, the chief's tribe, but having besides 
A'khbi, another chief of the name of Sadaktu, hostile 
to the former ; Tarabanasa, with the chiefs Teni and 
Woghdughu ; Terfentik ; Kel-tebankorit, with the 
chief Saul; Kel-hekikan, with the chiefs SiUekay, 
*Ayub, Kneha and Zobbi, this little tribe presenting 
the most striking example of the predatory and anar- 
chical character of these nomadic hordes ; Kel-tegha- 
rart, with the chief Khatem (surnamed or nicknamed 
by the Arabs El Gherfe); Kel-taborit, with the chief 
Khebar (another section of this tribe living with the 
I'regenaten) ; the Iwaraghen or Auraghen, another 
section of this widely scattered tribe which, once very 
powerful, has now lost a great portion of its inde- 
pendence, with the chief Khazza. 
Among the Awelimmiden live also the E'he-n-Dabosa, 
or E'he-n-Elali, with the chiefs Elakhte, Mushtaba, 
and El Motelek, originally a section of the Telamedes, 
a tribe of the Dinnik. 
I now proceed to give a list of the degraded tribes, or 
Imghdd, of the Awelimmiden and Igwadaren. 
Imedidderen, a tribe still very numerous, and not quite 
so much degraded in the social life of these regions as 
the other tribes, possessing even a good many horses, 
but formerly distinguished by their power* as well as 
by their learning. It was this tribe, together with 
the Fdenan, who founded the first settlement at the 
place where, in course of time, the city of Timbuktu 
arose. Their chiefs are Bele, El U'ssere, and Khayar. 
They are subdivided into a great many sections : -— 
* To the Imedidderen belonged Koselete, the warrior who slew 
'Ukba el Mustajab, the great Mohammedan hero in the history of 
the conquest of Africa.
