Aït Zemro — The confederation and its sections

First of the two groupings of the khoms of the Aït Ouahlim in Beaurpère's table (1930), with four tribes: Aït Bou Iknifen, Aït Aïssa ou Brahim, Ilemchan and Ignaouen. Hart finds the “Ait Zimru” as one of the two sub-fifths of the Ait Wahlim, which supplied two of the six judges of the appeal court at Igherm Amazdar (1984, p. 11).
