Biography

Hart thanks him for having the customary-law manuscript of Igharm Amazdar brought and for allowing it to be photographed in September 1961. In The Ait 'Atta of Southern Morocco (1984), Hart presents him as the son of Assou Oubasslam, owes him his father's biography (pp. 176-178) and dedicates the book to him.

    In September 1961, with the agreement of the qaid of Ikniouen, Hart had a notebook of customary rules of the Aït 'Aisa of Igharm Amazdar photographed, written in Arabic with many archaic Amazigh terms, probably a 1935-1940 copy of an older document.
