[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [QB] [b]rahotep101 - What is it about Albinos like you, which makes it so difficult for you to separate fantasy from reality?[/b] Wiki Kabylia is a series of villages on the peaks[6000–900 ft. Alt.] of the eastern part of the Atlas (100 km east of Algiers) - In ancient times, Kabylia was a empty, rocky and wild area inhabited by various animals including bears, wild bors, wolfs, monkeys, eagles and even hayens. No Human settlement is mentioned in any histical books documenting the peaceful period between Numedians (east northern Africa approx. modern Algeria + Tunisia) with Rome throughan the alliance and dating back to 500 BC, against the Phoenicians. It is not until the death of King Massinissa when his protege' nephew and General of Numedian Armies Jugurtha rebelled against Rome, from which he wanted separation, that the inaccessible highlands became inhabited. They are known as Jugurtha and followers' hiding, training and camping grounds. These once forts of Jugurtha's warriors slowly became small villages with tradition of self-sustainability as hunters and farmers after the capture of Jugurtha.[Saluste, Jugurthinian Wars] - It is also where rebellion against Rome's attempt to administer Christianity was instigated, leading to the birth of the Protestant church under various denominations, amongst which Baptists, Donatists, Prespetarians, all of whome opposed Catholicism. for no less than three centuries, the relation between Roman Administration and the highlanders is one which can be characterized as a conflict of low intensity, through physical separation - The 1st controlled the coastal areas and the valleys and, the second the highlands. Then late third century, the Geiserics also known as the Vandals, a Germanic Klan and sworn enemy of Rome, cornered in the Iberic(Spain) peninsula had to find a place and an ally to escape the Roman chase through the Gaule(France) and west-southwest. The snowy, cold and inaccessible highlands of Kabylia and its likewise enemy of Rome is thus a natural match. The population of the villages of Highlands, also known as Djurdjura, suddenly doubled as no less than 80 000 warriors with wife and children, i.e. families, filled the villages of Kabylia. Whereas the military forts were set on the lowers peaks closest to the sea known as Lower Kabylia, around the modern Algerian province of Bejia (Vgayet in Kabyle), the residential quarters in the higher lands of the Dhurdjura, also known as Great Kabylia. Thus, began the dense population of Kabylia. Just days away by horse from Carthage, the Vandal-Numedian coalition successfully evicted Rome from North Africa. While this alliance earned the Numedians the Barbarians (Berberes fr.), by extension from their new allies, it also created the largest clan in the region. Kabylians to whom the term was exclusively assigned amongst north-Africans are indeed the largest ethnic group in North Africa. The term Berber, progressively was applied to all native north Africans, starting their invasion in 1871. Until then, and for centuries since the departure of Rome, North African is a vaste territory occupied by a confederation of various Peoples and city-States, without a central power. Of these the Libyans to the Mauritanians, the Moores(Morocco), the Tunisians, the Touaregs(Sahel/Desert), the Mzab, the Chenouas, the Chaouis and Kabylians. [/QB][/QUOTE]
