Ancient
Libyans
Ancient
Libya was the region west of the Nile Valley generally
corresponding to modern Northwest Africa. Climate
changes affected the locations of the settlements.
In the Greek period the Berbers were known as Libyans.
Their lands were called Libya, and extended from
modern Morocco to the western borders of Ancient
Egypt. Modern Egypt contains the Siwa Oasis, historically
part of Libya, where the Berber Siwi language is
still spoken.
The name Libya appears in Ancient Egyptian, Phoenician,
Greek, Hebrew, Latin, Arabic, and the modern European
languages.
The Ancient Egyptians mentioned many Libyan tribes,
who were frequent foes of Egypt. The most well-known
and important tribes—on the basis of the Egyptian
archaeological sources—were the Tjehenu, the Tamahu,
the Libu (or Ribu), and the Meshwesh.
