Moorish woman leaving her bath in the seraglio.

The name 'Moors' has referred to several historic and modern populations of Berber, Black African and Arab descent from Northern Africa. The term Mauri, or variations, was used by European traders and explorers of the 16th to 18th centuries to designate ethnic Berber and Arab groups speaking the Hassaniya Arabic dialect. Today such groups inhabit Mauritania and parts of Algeria, Western Sahara, Morocco, Niger and Mali.
