Do you mean nomads?

[Ghazala]

Are you referring to Sahrawis?

As far as I know Berbers werent travellers so I don't think its them.

No, not nomads.

Let me expand a little. Whilst explaining my orgins to a collegue, they used this term which no one els understood (although i had heard it before). They went further to say that it basically translated to 'traveller' and that apparently thats what Moroccans were. I wanted to understand whether this was a term used to describe moroccans of years ago if it is still currently used. Why it has been attributed and the like.

Terms that come to my mind are Roadster, Vagabond, Expatriate.

I think you heard Bohemian.

the moroccan berbers were never travellers. the Arabs were.
The Moroccan Gypsies ususally refers to North Moroccan music or Andalousya music.
The only names refered to Moroccans are Barbars by Romans and moors in 14 Century
Sanhaja, Masmoda, and Zenata are the three tribes constituting the Berbers .
Phoenicians and Carthaginians were the first invaders coming from the land known then as Caanan in the Eastern Mediterranean in the 12C BC
The arabs invaded Morocco by The Idrissides By the 7C AD
I like to hear more input on this
