Izran and the cultural legacy of Sidi Chaib Ouneftah in the Rif region

On the outskirts of the eastern Rif, a white-domed building stands alone on one of the hills of Temsamane. For centuries, it is within the mausoleum of Sidi Chaïb Ouneftah that the oral tradition of izran has flourished. Passed down primarily by women, it forms a living chronicle of history and society, sung in verse and voiced on every occasion. It is an emancipatory cry that continues to define this age-old landmark.
