The Hilālī Bedouin Cavalry are the Arab-tribal light horsemen of the Banū Hilāl and Banū Sulaym — pastoralists who came west out of Upper Egypt across generations rather than in one wave, and whose slow settlement of the steppe has remade its speech and its rural order for good. By our own day the Riyāḥ and the Dawāwida make kings and unmake them, and the sultans between Tunis and Tlemcen court them with marriages, with tax-farms, and with grants of land and revenue to their chiefs. They ride to us under their own captains and on their own mounts, and they will not be told where to camp. This Arab-Bedouin tradition gives our armies a striking arm whose mobility and tribal numbers complement the Berber confederations without competing for the same kinship-recruitment pool.
