بنو توجين

Banu Tujin of the Badin folk of the third Zanata tier, one of their greatest and most numerous divisions; their homeland the slopes of Wadi Shelif below Jabal Wansharish, their chieftaincy the Banu Daflaten — Atiyya ibn Daflaten and Luqman ibn al-Mu'tazz, who sent his son Yidr with bay'a to Badis before the battle when his folk numbered some three thousand — famed in Hammad ibn Buluggin's wars; the chieftaincy then passed to the Banu Abd al-Qawi until the Abd al-Wadids took their homeland, and among their later amirs Atiyya al-Hayyu, killed in 607 by the Tlemcen governor's ruse, and Nasr ibn Umar of Jabal Wansharish into the days of the last Abu Hammu.
