Isakkamaren

Isakkamaren (Sakomaren), a historical Tuareg people, the Segmaras of the early Arab writers, who in mediaeval times occupied an extensive domain round about their stronghold of Tademekka, South Sahara. After the capture of this place, they were dispersed in various directions, some assuming the character of Marabouts (anislimin), while others sank to the condition of serfs to some of the noble Tuareg tribes. One group migrated northwards, and joined the Ahaggar conderacy in the capacity of traders on the caravan route between Twat and Ghadamas.
