MOORS Meaning and Definition

1. Moors is a term with various uses and historical contexts. Primarily, it refers to the Muslim inhabitants of the region of North Africa, including present-day Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya.

Etymology of MOORS

The word "Moors" is derived from the Latin term "Mauri", which referred to the Berber inhabitants of the Roman province of Mauretania, located in modern-day Algeria and Morocco. Over time, the term "Mauri" evolved into "Moors" in English to describe the Muslim inhabitants of North Africa, as well as the Muslim inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula during the medieval period. The Moors played a significant role in the history of Spain and Portugal, ruling parts of the region for several centuries.
