dbo:abstract
  • The Humr (also known as Humur, Arabic: همور, romanized: Hūmūr, lit. 'red') are one of two branches of the Messiria, a subgroup of the Baggara ethnic group, native to the south-west of province Kordofan, Sudan. Speakers of Chadian Arabic, the Humr live in the area surrounding the towns of Babanusa, Muglad and Al Fula (Arabic: الفولة). The Humr are divided into two groups - the Ajaira, who live in the area from Muglad to Abyei and the Felaita, who live in the vicinity of Babanusa, Alfoula and Kajira. There are six clans in the Ajaira and five in the Falita, and thus twelve Humrawi clans in all. Anthropologist Ian Cunnison lists the clans of the two divisions of the Humr as the Ajaira consisting of the Fayyarin, Awlád Kamil, Mezaghna, Fadliya, Menama and Addal clans, and the Felaita consisting of the Metanin, Ziyud, Awlád Serur, Jubarat and Salamat clans. The people who govern each tribe are known as the "Nazir" (Arabic: ناظر, lit. 'leader'). (en)
